Morning Page #297 Remove them forever please

I slept at 6 something..Woke at just before 7am. Today is a morning routine to tackle exhaustion day. Step into bright light, drink a glass of water (no salt though). I had a quick shower. Put my iPad on to charge and put on an episode of diagnosis murder.

8:01 calm twinnings tea in front of me. 

I'm was excited to write a morning page today but there's a smell I can't locate. It smells of wee. It's so annoying. Is it a rat? I just showered, it's not the bin because bits new (a new bin liner) 

Tea check: Drinkable 

Depression is harder this time around. It's always there. I think about the after. I had an overwhelming feeling that the plane I was on was going to crash. Also on the 23rd Sigh ni had an overwhelming feeling of jumping out of my hotel window to my death. I imagined falling in front of the two people walking past. I didn't feel this way again the whole trip. And I didn't feel like the plane I was on going home was going to crash (much). 

I feel like I was invited to a party that everyone and their dog knows is a prank. There's just been souch silence. I could really use a friend right now. I can't keep going this way . I can't continue being a beggar friend and guesswork. I beg every day for God to take these feelings away and reveal the truth. Remove the things causing me pain. Remove me thinking that my friends care, they don't. Please I am on my knees remove my feelings for the guy who doesn't remember I exist. Let alone that we use to be friends. Please let me move on so that I can find the guy who actually wants me. I have waited enough time on this. I can't keep believe it's him and me and.our 6 kids it's not, it's clearly not. I feel like a stupid punk. Silence is what I got. Please help me to breath again. I need my dreams and daydreamsvas a reality or for them to be removed forever this year.

45 minutes, see you when I see you.

Update: The smell was from the bed sheets I forgot about in my bed drawers that got dam because of the leak from the bathroom that came in to my room. All washed now and no more smell, 🙏🏽thank God

Morning Page #296 Why so exhausted

Woke at 10:20ish

 Oh... a part of my dream came back to me.

I am trying to tackle exhaustion and tired-ness. So I was doing that.

10:55am Murder she wrote episodes on my Ipad. Currently only season 2:15 on channel 5

Two things I know

(1) It's not normal 

I wake and then 20 minutes later or less I am exhausted.

(2) It may have something to do with my worming routine (since I've done this 2 other days it seams its working) but it has nothing to do with the fact that I live in my bed. Because this has only been since this year and that has been my routine for 10 years. Maybe more, I would say...my teen years if I'm honest. 

The morning routine is this.

1.Sit up

2.Open the curtains 

3.Step into bright light

4.Drink a full glass of water (add a pinch of salt🤷🏾) 

5.After 20- 30 minutes eat a small protein snack, nuts, yogurt a boiled egg (Today was a boiled egg)

6.Avoid lying or sitting in dim light for 30 minutes after waking.

I'm also doing 5 goals for 30 days. 

{1} One small creative piece a week.

{2} 10-25 minutes emotional release (which today is a morning page) 

{3} Create a core values list

{4} No screens 29 minutes after waking.

{5} To have conversations without a filter. Currently I've had 2. It's been 4 days. 

Emotional release: I'm a little anxious about my UC appointment in 2 days. I am scared of being in trouble or then saying I can't go. Blaming me for saying yes to that course or thinking I did it on purpose. I fear not being able to explain myself and not getting receptionist removed from my journal. And therefore having in my head while on my holiday. That is my focus get receptionist removed. I am beating myself up. Why on earth would I say yes when the answer is clearly no. Admin stresss me out . And I don't want a job in hospitality. What happens is I think it's too late to change my mind so I been convincing myself I actually can do this course anyway, the small print of /customer service. 

Distracted by the scratch in the inside of my left ear. I forgot what I was going to write. I will just let my work coach take the lead. But lie I said receptionist needs to be removed.

53 minutes, see you when I see you.

Morning Page #295 The truth {How I feel these days}

Woke at 9:48am, last night I was feeling the full affects of depression. I'm not fully over it now. I got that way because I was thinking about having to force myself to people please. Why must I still be surrounded by negativity. I'm not just surrounded, I'm cemented. I mean am I going to be here for another 5 years. If so why couldn't you just leave me in ignorant bliss. 

I just had an accident with my ice cream (dropped it) and had to change my clothes. Literally just changed my shorts. I was trying to pick something up but I dropped my ice cream on myself.

10: 20am Murder she wrote on my iPad. Black tea in front of me. Watching tarot set me off. You know made my mood low. I think it might be time to stop for a while. When it stops being excited for the future and starts being frustration and anger. You've been saying this for years, since 2021tk be exact. Maybe I just need to except that my life is not temporary. That I will be single and in survival mode till I die. 

Tea check: Drinkable 

I've been thinking about death more and more this year. Mine and my families. I do believe a change is coming soon. Could it be my death. I feel safe in writing this because people have forgotten I exist. Nobody reads these but me. I'll put money on that. I see myself moving both physically and mentally. A drastic divine intervention by the hands of God. I think it's out of sight out of mind. I wonder what.is the thinking. I haven't heard from you in 10+ years. Do you think about me? Do you care if I'm alive? Obviously you thought I had friends around me. You were just living your life. It feels like when you have a question and then...that's it. In this day and age in my opinion you have no excuse to keep that question in your head. Because Google exists. The only explanation to the silence is they thought I was fine that I had other friends or they forgot I existed. I was for a while. I'm independent I don't really crave people. I'm still a human being though and at some point silence kills. It gives girl take a hint vibes. Maybe people I once called friends know I'm alive through social media.  Maybe you were supporting in silence. That's fine but it needs to be loud now. I think this year is the end of it all. I'm feels like God is preparing me for living in the next chapter and I'm ready.

56 minutes, see you when I see you.

Morning Page 294 What will it take for closure (to close this chapter)

11:19 murder she wrote on Ipad, sleep tea from twinnings.

I am mad the wheel on the suitcase broke and the superglue I have is finished. My left thumb is itching now. I am a mix of emotions. I feel like I should be grateful the first suitcase I brought was too small I thought. Now I have a bigger one like I said at least there will definitely be enough space. I am angry that the wheel broke the thing is new for goodness sake. Increased anger that my dupwrglur is finished and that I couldn't fix the wheel . Glad is the last day of my period. I'm also happy I have a new batch of tea. 

Tea check: drinkable 

This is the last year, after 1st of January 2026 I am done. You can only stretch your positity so far. I thought I had friends but the silence is deadly. The excuses don't fly anymore. I have received nothing and I don't know why. I would have been happy with a birthday wish every year.if that's all you can manage so be it. Nothing is not acceptable. I can't be the one initiating all the time. It feels very 'gorl take a hint vibes,' Maybe it's because I am a happy smiley positive person. People assume I have plenty of friends. I don't have any. It was just you guys. I clearly took more out of this than you. Maybe it wasn't that deep and your silence wasn't personal. Thing is I am and I will. It feels like the unpopular kid invited to a party by the popular kid and everyone and their dog knows it's a prank. I know I will one day be in a room again with these people. They will ask me. 

'You could have reached out,'

'You could have messaged me,'

I hope that when that day comes I am brave enough to say the truth. I couldn't put myself through the disappointment no more. My energy was low. Your reason is valid. It just be nice to know them for closure, like my crush. 

'I didn't know, I had no idea,'

Fact is you tell people how you feel with your actions. I'm not psychic I can't believe the opposite of the evidence forever. That makes me delusional and I can't live there a day longer. Truth is love plane and simple. Despite the nothing it hasn't gone away it's gotten bigger. I wondered how he will react when he finds this out. Is he even alive? If so why would God give me something to hope for that is not possible. For my closure I need the truth. That's the next part of my healing.

37 minutes, see you when I see you.

Morning Page #293

Right now it's 23:01 in the evening...yea

Today a year ago I asked God to remove the things causing me pain. When I realised not gonna lie I was a bit disappointed and sad. Beyim exactly where I was a year ago. Then I caught myself I actually am far away from where I was a year ago. I may not be out yet but I can be positive about the fact I am closer. Also I hate that God had to remind me that he sees the bigger picture. He is all the steps ahead. 

Today I had a duck wrap and chicken boritio, chicken boritio is dry so I put some b+q sauce and on the duck wrap just because, both from pret. I made myself a cup of tea from loose leaf (which is low) and did a tea leaf reading. I was trying to decide what to watch, I put on murder she wrote. An then decided to watch something in Disney+. I clicked on American dad. I was binge watching that up until a few hours ago.

I'm pausing this to dry my clothes in the washing machine.

23:23

00:03 back after drying my clothes, making myself a plate of leftover rice and stew. Also my mum came back from church. 

I can't help but notice... sometimes it needs to be slapped in my face, so obvious...I don't know...I was thinking of a phrase but I forgot it. Everything I am was because I was forced to become that.

Patience because I cared too much what people thought of me.

I have a never give up attitude because it is (still is) very difficult for me to talk to people, to ask questions for fear of being wrong. The one that started me down this thought. 

I don't complain because I didn't feel like I could speak up about what I needed (which btw also made me independent)

I know for fact I couldn't have been who I am (also known as the person God knew from before birth) in fact it's the world that has beaten that out of me. It started when I was in school and was told speak up like I was doing it on purpose. 

Anyway I diagress 

...now if I had to talk to be I know I would have to find vadication in people. I can't rely on others to tell me who I am. That's apparent when the people from my past considered me shy...They we're wrong. I'm quiet no doubt. How do I know I'm funny because I talk to myself. I am the most important one in this situation.

Morning Page #292 Actions speak louder than words.

8:07 am, I woke at 7 something, might be close to 50. I poped in some throat sweets,

ah 08:08

I feel that was a mistake, weird that my mouth doesnt feel weird affer the two throat sweets (Lockets btw) I had it last night. Maybe because I had tea too.

yes that must be it. I went to the kitchen made myself a cup of of tea, cup of sweet dreams tea in front of me Spotify Playlist love story on. I recentntly as in yesterday found myself on my playlists. I am making my way through to see if I should delete them. I'm sure there's a lot of repeated songs. I slept to youtube 

Tea check: Still hot, I thought it would be warm.

I am going to start adding these to my blog again. Starting with this one. I think God gave no these Morning Pages and Me without a filter on Tiktok because he knew the with a filter was killing me. Walking on eggshells, hiding how I really feel so that I dont upset the people around me is exhausting, understandable Ive done it for 40 years. 

Tea check: Still hot but...no it's not drinkable. (Perseeds to burn her mouth)

Current song playing let's stay together by Lemur.

The truth is I 've been going through depression since 28th Nov 2024. I havent heard a thing from a 'friend,' in years apart from that one who knows who she is. Honestly our last conversation didn't feel like friends It felt like she was my therapist. That's why I haven't texted since then. It felt like I was an inconvenience to her, I was disturbing her. I feel lonely, if I didn't have family and God I would have no one. 

Tea check: Drinkable 

Bottom line is actions speak louder than words. I have...I didn't realise I was hurting myself by giving people the benefit of the doubt. I mean If I asked when is the last time you spoke to a friend (assuming you have some). You probably would say something close to a week at least. It's not normal to not hear from people who consider themselves your friends in years. There's only one conclusion from this those relationships were one sided, including my crush / love of my life/ future hubby. 

It seems like I took a truck load from this, more than they did. 

A lot of this requires I don't take this personally but the thing is 

I am and I will.

I just had a realisation that is what God has been trying to teach me. The lesson that has been starring me in the face.

I can say

They lost my number (or didn't take/want it in the first place)

I can say

They are busy.

I can even go as far to say 

They forgot I existed, which hurts me to my core.

But by doing that I break my own heart by ignoring my feelings.

Actions speak louder then words. You might as well have stabbed me that would have hurt less than this unnecessary silence. I'm sick of living in guess work of fighting to be seen. I know when you read this next sentence you will have an answer ready but resist that. 

I'm sick of teaching people what I need. they should know.

(not mind readers)

It should not be this hard to be understood.

The thing is I've spent 40 years trying to do just that. Beating myself up when it falls on death ears. Disappointed by the response. I am exhausted. On the 14th July I decided  I'm done with that. I'm staying still and whatever is meant for me will find me.

I've been living my life wrong it's not normal to explain as you go. I wake up I go to the toilet to pee. I decide to shower since I'm here. Or get a drink from the kitchen, decide to make breakfast. Or do those things and then come to the opposite conclusion. I cannot put myself through this mentally and physically.

Morning Page #291 Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Merry Christmas and a happy new year. Currently Its 5:48 In the afternoon. I know its not morning but I really wanted to write this on New years day. I plan to write a crazy amount this year. I mean tecnically It can only be 365, lol. I had a Peace and Peppermint tea to start the day. Wrote two dreams and a thought thought for my jars, filmed me without of filter. This year will be the best year ever. I expect a lot of pleasant surprises very positive, things removed. The people sent to destroy me and cause me pain and negativity will not succeed. In fact it will be sent back to them. Their thoughts about me in a a negative way will be sent back to them. Drama is not for me keep me out of it. Anxiety will be less this year. I'm living on the end of a lot of things. I will be out of survival mode in Jesus name. Out of rooms that feel like a chore. Out of rooms where I have to filter in Jesus name.
