When your American friends try to reassure you that shit is fine but you watch the news
Having survived growing up since childhood with depression, anxiety, and other dark impulses, you just come to accept that that is who you are. I recall reading somewhere that one way to defeat the darkness within is to acknowledge it and recognize when that darkness is trying to take over. That way you can deal with it without it lashing out uncontrolled.
I’ve never talked about it before, never looked for help, never wanted anyone to realize that I was having these issues, because I’m always worried that they will think that I’m just looking for attention or pity. Instead I just pass it off as that I’m just an introvert. In reality, it’s not that I prefer to be alone, being alone is the only time I feel safe.
Recently, while meditating, I realized that what I felt like was a stray cay. In the past I would cling to anyone who would pay me any attention regardless the person. This led to a number of poisonous relationships, which have move me to the “stray cat” stage I find myself in now; the stray with trust issues, not letting anyone get close.
Today, I did a search to see if there was such a thing as “Stray Cat Syndrome”. Apparently it is better know as Borderline Personality Disorder.
Like a stray cat, people with borderline personality disorder often have trust issues. They’re afraid to get close to people because, sure, some people gave them nice pets and some yummy food, but others screamed at them, kicked them, tried to run them over with their car
I don’t want to talk about it with my siblings, but I know that I should. Again, I’m afraid of how they would respond. They all have families, and I don’t want to burden them with ‘my problems’, but I also feel that if I don’t these feelings will eventually become more of a burden that I can manage on my own.
