Nr. 18

Not so much to say today. I did a lot of practical things, which is positive and something I should shrug off. But although I didn’t find so much sleep last night I feel positive today.

I am beginning to enjoy cooking again. I mean haven’t really lost the enjoyment, but I at least feel inspired to experiment again. One of my best friends is also really into cooking and so knowledgeable too. I have meant to make contact about this and see if we can maybe talk about ideas and stuff. It’s weird that we haven’t yet. We talk about things we do and what we like but never give each other tips or maybe join minds and make up a dish together. That would be fun. Yes, I think I’m gonna do that. 

I’m slowly starting to mold the idea of a book again. I’ve mentioned before how perfectionism have destroyed every attempt I’ve made towards writing a book. This blog was never supposed to be a literary masterpiece, just an exercise to just force myself to do something each day without self criticism. So I guess it hasn’t helped me in regards of actually writing the book, but perhaps molded a rough outline of a technique to write. 

I think that’s all I managed to write today. Not so exciting unfortunately, and inconsistent as well. But it’s ok ☺️👍🏻 

See you tomorrow.

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...

I don’t think I’ll be able to keep going each day with this blog. Which is actually very sad. When I started I felt so positive about it, but now I feel it has been consumed by negativity and depression. I don’t feel any better. I wanted this blog to be a safe haven for me, but I feel all I touch turn to ash. Depression is truly poisonous and it has altered my mind. I can’t think straight or find positivity. I’m truly struggling each day just to get out of bed. Some days I’ve not moved at all.  But on I go. The need to not hurt others is strong within me, as it is with most people suffering from depression; we know the pain a suicide will inflict. I definitely know all about it. Maybe in a morbidly poetic way my experience with death in my family is what might save me from committing suicide.  This might be the last entry for a while. I’ll return though. Hopefully more cheerful and with a deeper focus on philosophy and ideas, not just my depression.
