Forgive me if this is all over the place. I'm horrible with people and I don't know where to start so I'm just gonna dive in.
Last year I broke my femur and my hip so I've been laid up and I don't do well at that. The whole idle hands thing, except it's my minds that leads me to dark places. I've been in a not so good place the last two months and there is really only one person who I can talk too and I know I was being a selfish prick because I haven't talked to him and let him wonder if I'm dead or alive, mostly because I wasn't sure if I wanted him to talk me out of my thoughts.
I'm not going into the whole back story right now, just that I don't remember a day in my life where my parents didn't hate and/or resent me. It was a nightmare growing up.
So it started just with thoughts, then dreams, but now I'm having serious flashbacks and I just...stop. It's almost like I'm there again and I can't function.
The other day I took a girl out for dinner (Ha, I almost had a date) and we just got out food and this memory slammed me in the face and I had to go to the bathroom to hide. It took me about 15 minutes and by then she gave up. Not that I blame her.
And it was a **** piece of chicken. I remembered, going back to when I was 12, maybe 13. I don't remember what I did but I had to done something because my father made me sit on the floor in the corner instead of the table for dinner. I think I'd already been told I wasn't eating for misbehaving. But he walked over and handed me a piece of chicken. I should have known something was up but I was starving.
So I took it. But he kicked me In the hand when I went to eat it so I end up dropping it and taking a chunk out of my hand. He grabbed me and dragged me to my room and threw me in and told me to stay for throwing food and wasting it.
I just remember being so **** hungry. I waited until they passed out and I snuck out. I don't know what I was planning. I had no money and I was raised to be seen and not heard so I had no skills to talk to anyone. Maybe I was planning on finding a restaurant garbage to pick from.
But, being my luck, a cop happened to drive by and he stopped. Probably because I was never big and probably looked younger and... Well, whatever he was thinking. I can't remember what I told him but he drove me back home instead of letting me walk. So course he comes with me to the door and talks with my father while I was sent back to my room.
I knew that I was going to get it. I remember trying to figure out where I should or what I should say. So I just stood there but when he came in he such a look of rage. I don't usually run because there is no point but I did run to the other side of the bed and kept apologizing. I ended up waking up on the floor but at least he was gone.
Anyways, all that flashed back when I looked at the chicken. And it isn't like I was sitting on the floor with my arms around my knees rocking back and forth but I... panic? I guess. I don't know. I shake and breathe heavy and get teary eyed. I know that all sounds stupid, but it is... And I can't really push myself out of it. It's almost like I have to relive it all until my head decides to shut itself off.
I don't know if there is a name for it, or if I'm really just losing my mind. I don't know.
I'm sick of therapists and it's hard anyway. I live like a gypsy of sorts. I work in the oil field so I'm gone a lot and I don't live anywhere. Summer I usually stay in my truck and winters I can hotel it. I guess I'm a hard person to deal with and I suck at being social and I'm too awkward for anyone to deal with so I don't have any friends but my one, who I've been a real ass too.
Am I really going crazy, do you think?
