Nr. 13, 14, 15, 16

So, I missed 3 days of blogging. The “old” me (which paradoxically would mean ‘newer me’ as I was younger back then...and the ‘old me’ is the future me...which is also me now as it’s the future versi...oh screw it) would’ve felt a sharp sting for missing these three days in an otherwise brave attempt to blog every day. However, I will try to accept the fact that these three days were spent recuperating from a very difficult time. Darker days will still appear along the way, but I have a brighter outlook now. Maybe it’s the medication, maybe it’s the surroundings (at our lovely lake cabin), maybe it’s loving friends, or maybe it’s me who managed to bring myself to some brighter thoughts. Personally I think it’s the combination of all the above. 

I managed to sleep for quite a bit last night. I didn’t fall asleep until maybe 3am, but I slept until noon more or less uninterrupted, and that gave me almost nine hours. Or a solid eight at least. I got up and did some light tidying. I fixed myself a wonderful breakfast which I enjoyed down by the water. I’m currently cleaning the cabin as I’m leaving tomorrow. If I could stay longer I would. The connection here is rather dreary, but I’m actually ok with it right now. 

I will try my best to keep this blog alive. It helped me through some difficult days. Not that I wrote anything unique or imaginative, but the routine of it helped me focus and stay on top of things. I never really read old posts. I feel that once it’s posted I’m done with it. However, I will read these again someday (and will probably find thousands of spelling and grammar mistakes which will rattle my bones).


Although this blog started as just for me, I did open it for the public and linked it on my instagram account (Sindre.kristiansen). So if you are reading this I wish you a beautiful day. It’s currently a heatwave here (and the rest of the world it seems) so for us sun deprived Norwegians it is heavenly, for the climate overall I guess this isn’t a good sign...nonetheless I do genuinely wish you a fantastic day. ❤️

Nr. 60

Next month I’m attending a wedding. I’ve been so busy thinking about practical things (like finding a suit to wear and what to bring as it is for a weekend getaway) that I didn’t realize until now that I actually need to socialize. Meaning talk about my current situation. I’m officially on sick leave due to depression which isn’t really the most festive conversation starter at a wedding (or any event really). As much as I really want to celebrate my friends getting married, I simultaneously feel stressed as to have I’m gonna phrase this. I know there are people out there with far greater difficulties than me, even within my friend circle probably, which makes me even more frustrated about my worry. I’m positive I will get through it of course. I even know despite my definite self torment of reviewing my ‘performance’ I will get by.  But I still feel slightly anxious about it. I used to be ok attending events with strangers when I could smalltalk about my work and then swiftly...

Nr. 64

Nr. 64 I’ve known for quite some time now how little I care about myself. It’s one of the reasons why I had no problem giving everything of myself to others, as I feel I have nothing worth saving for myself (which has opened my eyes to one big reason why my relationships hasn’t work out, but that’s another story). It sounds awfully self pitying, except that I don’t really feel sorry for myself nor do expect others to either. I can change the way I think about or view myself, but that would be trying to mask or bypass what’s objectively true. Normally I would be ok with this ridiculous dejection, but when it is combined with a ‘low’ it can turn quite unappetizing and worth hiding. I have a small core base of people willing to help me. Who are waiting for my call. Even though at this point it’s like waiting for Godot. Even my psychiatrist asked me the other day why I didn’t call when I was at my worst last week. I couldn’t really give her a good answer. Pride? Stubbornness? Or pe...

Nr. 61

During yesterday’s afternoon I had to lie down to rest. I had only gotten 2 hours of sleep the night before so it was definitely needed. I woke up abruptly well into the evening from a nightmare. Or it wasn’t so much of a nightmare as much as a psychological warp that changed how I view myself. I’m still trying to come to terms with it.  The dream had its normal amount of absurdities; I was part of a group hiding from a murderer who was hunting us. The team consisted of me, some friends of mine, Casey Neistat, Mila Kunis, and a robotic version of Hachiko. We were all hiding in this large locked down house. The murderer was in here with us. I had a gun which fired small amounts of glue, but if I did hit someone the glue would explode.  I was eventually spotted by the murderer and I fired off a serious of point blank shots to his face and neck. They exploded one by one. Nothing happened to him. We then warped into an abstract world where we would fight strategically using ...
