Musings #018

Today was a day off and I seemed to be consumed with negative thoughts through the day.

Today was such a weird day. Barely uttered any words. Slept and ate. A lot of time wasted on social media platforms like Reddit and Instagram.

Room is a mess but didn’t clean it up. Watched a movie that was slightly disturbing (Luckiest Girl Alive on Netflix). Pondered and worried about my increasing weight, saw the pictures over the last one year and how I am changing.

Recalled an incident from the past where a lady was rude in particular.

Should have gone to sleep but decided to take a bath at 2 am while reading Slyvia Plath’s Bell Jar. For those of you who don’t know, the protagonist is undergoing mental health issues and I ended up reading the part where she is contemplating cutting off her wrists in a warm bath. Major eye roll moment. Got a little freaked out. Saw a few pictures of my partner who is away at the moment to comfort myself. Decided not to read any further.

Now ending this bummer of a day with a blog post.

Adios!

Anxiety

They say sleep gives your mind some rest. But what if you have gotten aloof to the idea of rest. What if restlessness runs in your veins now, along with those RBCs and WBCs? That uneasy feeling inside your body which subjugates your mind. Can’t think straight. Can’t act or react with propriety. Insanity makes sense now.

Mental discomfort sucks!

Physical discomfort resulting from above sucks even more!

So I am going to get some sleep. New day. New story. New beginnings.image
