Back when my Nan was young, things that are considered abuse was normal. Due to her illnesses she was abusive to my Mum and Uncles, physically and emotionally. Not that being ill is an excuse - but she thought my Mum was the devil and things, tried beating the 'evil' out of her. When my Mum was very ill still and getting some of her first memories back, she had some memories of being touched inappropriately [sexually] when she would have been very young - about 5 years. By her father. This was clarified by her elder brother - who had caught him at times and being older understood it more. It was hard to hear. Horrible in fact. My Grandad died when my Mum was 12 so I've never met him and before my Mums illness and these memories he was a kind of 'hero' in the family. My Mum always considered herself a 'Daddies Girl' although never seemed able to explain why this was the case. I've been thinking about this alot recently. It explains so much. The way she was with me, our relationship, the problems and differences in abilities of parenting from my Mum and my Dad, but with Mum being the one at home all the time. Dad wasn't about enough to make up for the way Mum was. And then he was never mine anyway. My Mum, completely unintentionally [I think] messed me up - and since all this came to light it's all made so much more sense and logic - BUT I am worrying about my own future so much more since this all came out. Now, I know my Mum loves me, I know she cares - in her own way. I understand that most of the anger wasn't actually caused by me, I just seemed to be someone who triggered it off. I know that now.. but at 5 when my Mum wouldn't look at me for weeks, when Mum would send me to Nan's because she couldn't cope with me and my little sister at the same time.. at 7 when she would scream and shout and tell me she hated me, that I'd ruined her life and any chances of her making anything of herself, that she just wanted me to go, still spending so much time at my Nan's. At 9, trying to kill myself, hurting myself, hitting my head on walls, punching things, feeling like I was gonna break but that it didn't matter because Mum hated me anyway. Meeting J, falling apart more. But then I was sick, evil, twisted little girl who was hated by everybody. Why would I expect any different; even if he did promise to be my best friend. Getting off track now, but you know what I mean.
I'm worried that despite all my best intentions I will end up screwing up my children. I don't have any yet and no plans anytime soon, but I cant help but think and worry that that's how it will be with my children. That I'll be so focused on my own pain I'll lash out at whoever's closest. I don't wanna mess up my children. I want this all to stop. I wanna stop this cycle here.

A Fuck Up Waiting To Happen.
It's a fuck up waiting to happen.
I'm a fuck up!
I've brought new blades. Not just new blades,
but stanley knife, proper blades.
I don't want this pain, it all hurts so much,
I'm insisting that I carry on for now..
Keep trying.
But then another part of me just thinks
"what's the point?"
Nothing is going to change.
I believed them 7 years ago when they said it would change -
that things would get better.
I believed them 4 years ago again - with the promise of change.
It hasn't.
It wont.
And it never will.
I dont have the belief in me to believe or trust for any different.
Pain is all I shall ever know..
I can't hurt like this forever.
I'm not as strong as people think I am.

And So The Struggle Continues..
I feel shit today; and I'm really truely feeling it..
As such, I've ended up bingeing and now and
tommorrow, I do already and will feel absolutely
shit when I most probably will gain weight.
I did a huge work out - but I dont think it will be
enough to fix this..
Ahhhhhhhhhhh!
I dont wanna hurt like this. It's not fair.
I'm fed up, I'm scared, I'm so
fucking scared.He's had so much of my life,
and even after leaving it physically, he still has me..
still as much control, causing as much pain as ever;
if not more because I didn't remember most of it as it was happening..
I did say stop.
I keep trying to tell myself..
*It's not my fault, it's not my fault* but then..
.. why does it feel like it is?
I cant remember a time before this. |

More Weight Loss.
I weigh myself in the morning; like most people do I'm sure..I'd lost another 3 pounds this morning.. so it's already 7 pounds in these 2 days. I should be happy? I am pleased that I've done this well already, but it's a bit like homework from school that you get a good grade on; sure you feel good about it, but it kinda feels like an expectation..One thing down, lets move onto the next thing.. MY expectations which to be honest, through my extremely high standards will be likely to be hell to keep up with.. Why am I pushing for more.. I'd like to lose 14 pounds this week.. And then again the same for next week. I'd promised myself that I wouldn't let this get out of control; sometimes I just don't care anymore.. but even when I do I can't help but think that I NEED to lose weight anyway, I am overweight.. very overweight..Plus with everything such a mess at the moment..In my life; In my head.. It's actually quite the relief..in some ways. I don't like the dizziness or headaches..Nor the hunger generally.. BUT I will deal with them just because I have too.. I don't think it's a choice anymore, I really want to say that this isn't going to get out of control like I've been insisting to my friends.

Feeling A Mess
I am hurting so much right now.. I can't even describe it..
It doesn't seem real that I can feel like this; again.
I feel so trapped, a bubble inside of me is refusing to burst.
I'm trying to contain everything but at the same time,
needing to appear completely fine to everyone else.
I can't stop thinking about cutting, or self-harm in general;
overdosing, burning, hitting things, hitting myself.. Intrusively intense.
The thoughts just will NOT leave my mind, constantly there,
thoughts, feelings, ideas and plans.. I feel so bad, I feel alone,
I am scared!
I'm not eating, fasting if you like, controlling, enjoying the pain of
hunger in some ways, fearing it in others.. feeling dizzy, light-headed
and head-achey already, but I won't give in. I can't let go of this;
My only lifeline. I lost 4 pounds during yesterday I found out this
morning.. I can do this, I need to do this.
Everything's that happened with him in stuck in my mind.
On replay. Flashbacks, intrusive thoughts and nightmares.
Memories, painful, painful memories, all I can think is
that I'm a SLUT. I know it, and everyone else knew it.
J knew it.. I know it's MY fault, I'm willing to take the blame,
I just need it to stop hurting me so much..
BUT I can't talk about it, I can't tell anyone. I can't ruin my silence.
It's the only thing holding me together - despite ripping me apart.
I don't have the strength to go through it all, to admit to it all..
Plus I need everyone to think I'm okay, that everythings fine, all
wonderful and dandy..
The word. Hurts so much, everyone says that it's a 'horrible
word for a horrible act' but it hurts, having people tell me
that I was raped, saying that word.. it's triggering,
it's easier to not mention it.. I know I would say different
to anyone else who was in the same position but I just
don't wanna hear it.. I'm hurting too much right now..
Suicide. It feels like the only way out.
I don't want to hurt anymore, cry anymore,
cut anymore.. think and remember anymore.
But I always will whilst alive.
I can't do this anymore.
Once I reach my goal weight.
I shall go.
I need to have this success before I leave,
so I'm not a complete failure.

Sleep Sweet Dreams
Is this the end? Again..
I never wanted to remember.
But you force me too.
I never wanted to hurt.
That never stopped you.
I don't want all the blame.
That you gave to me.
I still want you to love me.
Although you never did..
I don't want to cry anymore.
Pain, sorrow, fear..
Please can you try to help.
Like you said you would.
Did you know?
Nothing had changed..
I'm so scared..
Because I dont know anymore.
Is it worth the pain?
Of being alive,
My head is racing, pacing,
Tracing my arm with a blade.
But, no, I wont, Not again.
Can I stop.
These thoughts chasing,
Racing, tracing, pacing,
I'm fed up of facing,
All of my fears,
Just let this be,
Let me go,
Let me sleep,
Or this brain to slow,
Sleep sweet dreams,
Please just let me,
Sleep sweet dreams.

Parental Avoidance.
For once it's not me doing the avoidance; well not just me anyway.
When it comes down to all my experiences, it is unmentionable. I am unmentionable and it is a completely untouched, "hide away in the back of the closet" type thing.. The problem is, there are times, like now; when my flashbacks and nightmares are bad, really, really bad and they are pretty much all thats on my mind.. YET I am not to talk about it.. I do find talking about it hard, terrifying.. extremely hard, but even the option isnt there anymore. I don't talk to anyone about all this and wonder why it's all building up. It's such a boundary, it's okay other people wanting to move on and forget about it all - I do too. But shutting themselves away from what has happened to me, is shutting themselves off from me.. I don't feel like I can talk about with them.. it feels like I should be over it all by now, despite the fact it only completely stopped the very beginning of 2010.. I can't help that this still hurts, I can't help that this is STILL destroying me day by day.. but doing this alone, makes it all the more harder. My Care-Co-Ordinator didn't even know, it's in all my files, surely.. but it is something I haven't spoken about since I was in my very first hospital.. I started then to try and wall things back in again because it was the only way I was going to get out of there.. but since.. it's untouchable again. It feels like the silence is giving it all the strength back - giving HIM all the strength back.. I feel like I'm going backwards, and I know I need to talk.. but I don't know how to get to that point now - I don't know how to trust anymore and I can't risk the fragile coping I'm on at the moment. Ahh. What to do, what to do?!
Spending..
In an effort to cheer myself up I've spent money.. a LOT of money.. damn the stupid people for fucking things for so long, now having this money all at once makes it soo damn hard to not spend.. luckily, I'd already put a lot of it into my savings account. I should be receiving a; New 27" TV, Wii Fit game thingy and a new laptop :) I am happy I'm getting them, but I feel guilty despite the fact I shouldn't be.. *sigh* I really don't know what's going on in my head today.. On a more? positive note despite horrendous flashbacks and nightmares last night, I didn't cut again.
