Hello, Severe Emotional Problems! How's it going?

[desideratum]

Last night I read some fluff novel by that chick who wrote The Devil Wears Prada. I finished it somewhere in the wee hours of the night, and wanted to either kill myself or die immediately after. I was so fucking depressed for some reason, and I don't even think I can begin to articulate why in the light of day

Hey, Greys Anatomy reduced me to a sobbing mess last night....don't feel bad.

[desideratum]

Yeah, but I was crying over complete crap. Not a moving story.

[desideratum]

And I wish I wasn't such a wuss. Oh well.

Please. I cry at a particularly well-crafted kleenex commercial.

He's right: give yourself a break. There are enough people who want to fuck with you in this world. You should be on your side.

Why fault yourself for crying? Hahaha.

I'd be worried if that sentance read something like: "What a fucking pussy I am. Who cries cuts themselves while drinking alone and abusing vicodin in the middle of the night over a book with a happy ending?"

Crying? Perfectly healthy response to a wide range of emotional stimuli- even things that are light and fluffy.

As for feeling depressed by a happy ending, was it out of shame for feeling so emotional over it? Or possibly a "this happy fantasy made me think ver what I wish I could change in my life?" sort of thing?

It's frustrating because it had absolutely nothing to do with the book, and everything to do with my own personal problems.

I cry at movies/commercials/songs/books all the time with no problems. I should have probably explained myself better.

Don't be so hard on yourself. I think detaching yourself from what the depression is streaming from might be a good move.

Take care of yourself Murph.
