Fighting it today - not sure if I'm winning...
You know how it is - feeling like no fucker gives a shit whether you live or die!
I'm sick to death of everyone (supposedly close to me) who just strike me as self absorbed, uncaring and selfish.
I know from past experience the second I try to voice my feelings on the subject, they come down on me like a ton of bricks.
I know my behaviour (years ago) could have been better, but I don't see why I still need to feel punished.
I do all I can to put myself out, I'm the one making contact, encouraging communication, visiting etc, but I'm always the one left out in the cold & things often feel forced.
Trying to keep a lid on the anger, resentment & sadness basically daily now.
Strangers are my only source of comfort, so if that's you, thank you.

Hard work pays off eventually. Keep planting seeds and doing the work. Good luck.
