#Getting Older Sucks

[lostintime-liketearsinrain]

So today is my 33rd birthday and I've spent it alone, in bed with little to no contact with anyone 🙃🫠! I'm not one to make a big fuss over my birthday, it's just another year and I have no one special or any friends to celebrate with really! I wish I had a big friend group or even just someone to celebrate it with but i don't, Its crappy but it's life!

Bless my mum tho, she's making me come over to theirs for some food and company tonight! Think she's worried about me living alone and being alone on my birthday!

So anyway, happy birthday to me and here’s to getting older 😂😅🙃🩵

sigh the downfall of wattpad is so heartbreaking it's so dead there now. its depressing because wattpad largely shaped who i am today and it was a safe place for me to hide from the pains of my real life and to see it start crumbling away and dying makes me feel like i'm losing a part of myself and like i'm losing the safe place and all the memories i have. i know its not shutting down or anything (knock on wood) but just to see barely anyone updating and seeing the accounts of my favorite authors go dead (cough cough kkkkkkatrin) go dead is gut wrenching. this lowkey plays into the sadness i feel when i think about hyyh era (dont even talk to me about it.) because the loss of both of those eras (wattpad and hyyh) is just a reminder that we're all going to get older one day and it sucks ass bro and it hurts even more bc i wasn't around during wattpad's bts peak or hyyh era (which coincidentally are around the same time) so it adds major FOMO to the whole thing which really sucks. i keep trying to tell myself that one day the post-military and tumblr era will be nostalgic for us all and i'll have the comfort of knowing i was there for that but it's still so difficult...i dunno man i think about this every single night and it's so so so stomach twisting to think about because i don't want to get older and i don't want to move on and forget my youth and my happy memories here and ajfihfoihfoir it sounds stupid i think but its just what i feel anyways thanks for reading this absolute novel of a tumblr post love ya

Good news: only took 48h for the side effects of the COVID vaccine to go away

Bad news: I've somehow completely thrown my lower back out...

Like getting out of bed hurts so bad ... But this happens like every year or so :/ hopefully my body will be good by the 16th cause that's when classes start

a few weeks ago I started randomly experiencing tingling in my back and I ignored it hoping it would go away but instead it is now a bit worse and the truly unfortunate thing is that the main thing that makes it feel better is lying on my back but I hate lying on my back and absolutely can't fall asleep this way

My birthday is the day after tomorrow and I don't know why I'm dreading it! Nothing is going to happen! I'm just going to be a year older and nothing will change because of it. I still hate it.

#personal #getting older sucks #the day just makes me nervous #especially about people sending me messages #because once a few years ago pretty much all of my friends didn't wish me a happy birthday #and it devastated me for some reason #I haven't even celebrated my birthday in years at that point! #I hate calling attention to the fact that I'm getting older #and yet I get upset when people don't acknowledge 'my day' #I hate my brain #makes me feel stupid #vent

I'll probably be away for a few more days so enjoy my queue in the meanwhile. I'm relatively ok. I have gotten to that point in my life where my friends are starting to die off and I don't like it. I don't like this at all.

This is a bit emotional, so bear with me.

I try to stay positive for others, but I'm also suffering. Lately, because the pain has been so bad, I've had some pretty dark thoughts. Thoughts that I have never had, and it scares the shit out of me. All because I'm in so much pain. Physically and emotionally.

I used to wonder what drove people to hurt themselves or worse, and now I understand a bit more. These thoughts start out as a whisper and gradually get louder until they are screaming. A black hole appears before you, and it starts sucking you into an unknown place. But, there is silence in it. No noise can escape it, no light can reach you. It's just...

Quiet. Peaceful.

It's relief.

All those dark thoughts go away, but you are still in the black abyss. It surrounds you like a shroud. There is no warmth, nothing. It's outer space, but there are no stars to guide you out of the dark.

There is no going back.

You can not undo the mistakes you've made or change the past. You've only got one life. This life.

No one can truly understand who you are or what you are going through, but it's the effort that makes the difference. Staying positive when you are suffering is exhausting. Trying to smile when all you want to do is cry is exhausting. Going day to day with the same onward grind but never getting anywhere is... exhausting.

We are all exhausted.

But there is a light in the distance. It could be a star, a train, a dragon, or whatever you believe in. It's there waiting for you to grab on to it and hold on so it can pull you out of that darkness. That one goal, hope, faith, or love, is there waiting for you. You just have to reach out.

Reach out!

Speak!

Yell!

Scream!

Say something...

Because no one will know if you don't.

I've been dealing with a lot lately, so I thought I'd share this.

how am I supposed to let go,

as the memories grip my shirt and hold me down.

choking me as I try to forget,

as I try to move on.

I cannot let go,

I will not let go.

I feel like I'm hitting the bottom of well. Clawing at cobbles for long spent water

Trying to find my Dinner Of The Week, and i am sadly forced to remember that i am now allergic to eggplant.

#i can still eat it it’s just not as fun #getting older SUCKS #never allergic to anything and now i am scorned by one of my favorite vegetables

I really don’t know how the cloud works but I was searching a number on my phone and when I typed in one or two numbers all these old photos I thought I had deleted showed up. I’m gonna post them because I was so cute and thought I was hot shit lol. I think the most recent photo here was taken at least 6 years ago.

#I also found all my scandalous photos I took and man I wish I still looked like that #me #getting older sucks

Douglas Adams was Right...

1. Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works. 2. Anything that's invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it. 3. Anything invented after you're thirty-five is against the natural order of things.”

I'm fairly well past the third category.

With everything (well, Most everything). I'm also frugal (again, mostly) out of necessity. I get something I like, I'm pretty hard pressed to 'upgrade' for the sake of upgrading.

But it's not all bad - I LOVE my car. I mean, my 'lottery win' fantasies involve giving my amaze-balls mechanic a PILE of cash and tell him to go mad. I ALSO love being the silver and blue/purple haired that will absolutely boil the road at stoplights, leaving pussy little Hondas (and trucks, and Cameros and late model v6 Mustangs). *1 The thing is, going back to frugality and new tech aversion, Lucy has had the same CD player for at LEAST 8 of the 9 years I've had her. It doesn't play any discs anymore.

Radio sucks most days. I hate most of what passes for 'music'. I sure as hell don't want to drop a couple hundred in a new player, *2 and my phone doesn't have enough memory for 'stuff and on and on...

So a fruitless ask at the local 'Best Buy' *3 I had to flounder on my own, relying on good old Gen X self sufficiency. I ended up with a 5'' tablet. a 3$ connector cable (the right one on the first go!) and navigating 'Spotify'... I HAVE MUSIC OF CHOICE!!! I can barrel down the road, alternation between 'Renegade - Styx', 'Closer - Nine Inch Nails' 'Back in Black -AC/DC' AND 'Toccata in Fugue - Bach' *4. The moral of this rather over blown missive ia that you may not be able to teach an old dog new tricks, but is old Bitches can still be pretty self sufficient when our backs are against the wall. Speaking of which, when the battery's fully charged I'm going to have to download some Pink Floyd, to add some other spice to the mixes... *1 Lucy is a 1998 Ford Mustang GT Convertible with a V8 and a fee barely street legal upgrades. *2 She's also a DIVA and has already cost me over 250$ this month because the stupid chip in her key self destructed, and auto locksmiths charge STUPID amounts to cut and program a key. *3 It sucks getting the 'you're not buying 500$ of stuff you're not worth talking to. Only marginally better than the mansplaining I get with my own damned car. *4 Premixes and autotune are no match for a Bitch with Bach. Besides, as soon as thr light turns, you won't have to worry about it any more...

Approaching 23 having never had a relationship feels like 15 year old Caroline’s worst nightmare. I have conflicting feelings about it now. I thought I’d be married by now, I’m glad I’m not though. Still it’s soul crushing to need love so badly and nobody seems to want me back
