I'm at the Syska's house right now, and I got tired of just sitting around. Not much happened today except for the fact that I was on the verge of having an emotional breakdown at school, but somehow I managed to hold it off until I got home. I've been off my anti-depressants for about two months now, and even though I'm really glad I'm not taking them anymore, I've been really sensitive lately. Today, Lauren made a completely innocent comment about how I'm always perky when she's in a bad mood and how it pisses her off, and I almost started bawling right then and there. I just had to look away for a second and brush away a few tears before she saw me. I know that if my mom knew how I've been, she would make me start taking my pills again, but I love the way I can finally write poetry again, and I don't just feel numb all the time. I don't have to pretend to have emotions anymore--I actually have them! Anyway, I'm sure I'll be fine, I just need to "toughen up and stick it out," like my dad always says. I'm just so grateful that I have people like Jordyn, Christina, Greg, and Steven who are always there to listen when I've had a bad day. They have been Jesus to me so many times, and I just thank God that He put them in my life. I am so blessed to even know them at all. Well, I ought to go because I don't want Mr. and Mrs. Syska to come home to find me on their computer. I'll update again later.
Just remember: Watch how Jesus did things, and then follow His example. It's the best advice you'll ever get.
