My thoughts are scattered tonight. I feel the need to get it out of my head. Excuse my word emesis.
Sometimes, I get tired. The anxiety, the depression can all get too overwhelming. Then I get even more depressed.
I have a good life. I have a house and family and friends and people who love me. What right do I have to be upset?
I drink wine at night to take the edge off of the shit that rolls through my head. I have tried deep breathing and meditation and they are helpful in the long run, I hope, but sometimes I can't wait. Sometimes I struggle dealing with the shit that fills my head.
I am getting better. Things don't hurt as deeply or for as long.
I have anxiety about my girlfriend. The Buddha says that we often struggle because we are fighting "what is" in hopes that we can make it what we want. I do this. I fight what is, or at least what may be. I do this with my feelings and with relationships. I am the king of denial. My girlfriend anxiety comes from this. The problem is facing what is, or figuring out what it is so as to know what I want it to be. Then I fall into the trap of desire, or more accurately I am already in it. The downward spiral of desire.
I don't know if I can truly trust a woman anymore. I used to be able to. This is a struggle because I love to love. I love to give my love to a woman. To take care of her. To give to her. To accept and be with her. That is tainted. I don't know how to get past that.
I keep saying to myself I need to let stuff go. I don't know how to do that.
I over think. This makes me miserable. It also makes me perceptive when it is controlled.
Sometimes I think that being married and having kids is what I am meant to be. Then I think that I really enjoy what I have now.
Tonight I am awake at 3:33 am because I was scared to go to bed because I am scared of my brain.
I need a change.....I just don't know what.
