I write quite a lot on here about my mental health. This blog serves as an outlet, of sorts: a way for me to express how I’m feeling through the written word — the only way I’ve ever been able to express myself with any degree of clarity. When I’m feeling down, writing helps; it … Continue reading Good days, and bad Days
Not-So-Happy Stuff
Drunk Crying at Parties
Time to do some talking, I suppose. Ironic, how I’m so shit at actually talking, and yet put a keyboard in front of me, and I can type for hours, words flowing out of my brain and onto a screen. Sums up my generation, I suppose. On Wednesday night, I went to a party. I’d … Continue reading Drunk Crying at Parties
Moving On
Does anyone round here even remember me any more? I've been gone for an age -- too long, honestly --, but exams and commitments left me with no choice but to put blogging to one side, at least whilst school finishes up.

I’m Scared of How I Don’t Feel

Regardless, I have missed blogging – missed writing to you … Continue reading :I Think I Broke
Do You Ever …
Do you ever ... just ... feel sad? Usually, I write this kind of post, and say determinedly that "I don't know exactly wy", or that "there are many reasons why" I feel sad, low, or down. That's just the way I am, I suppose: if you don't accept that there's an issue, it doesn't … Continue reading Do You Ever …
I Failed You, Mr Duke Sir
Captain L here, ready and reporting for duty. But wait, no ... I cannot be Captain L, Llama Leader, Cacti Conquerer -- this cannot be me. Let me explain. I failed Duke of edinburgh. Yup, I did -- I know, I'm ashamed too. If you're unfamiliar, the Duke of edinburgh award (or the DofE) is … Continue reading I Failed You, Mr Duke Sir
