Who am I? A human or a monster?
A creature of light or a creature of darkness?
Who am I? A human or a monster..
I search for answers,
But they seem out of reach,
As if my soul isn't in my body,
But beyond my reach..
Who am I?
My soul isn't in my body,
I feel detached,
Like an observer of my own story.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I ask myself,
Who am I,
And what do I want?
What is the purpose of this life that I've been given to haunt?
I try to understand the path that lies ahead,
But the fog is thick,
And my thoughts are a thread.
I search for peace,
For a way to find my place,
In a world that's ever-changing,
Where nothing seems to stay in place.
I look within myself,
To the depths of my soul,
But the mirror reflects back a stranger, a hole.
I look in the mirror,
But what do I see?
A reflection that's not quite me.
I'm searching for something,
But what is it?
A sense of purpose, A place to fit.
I try to make sense of the fragments of my being,
But the pieces don't fit,
And the puzzle's deceiving.
Maybe it's in the journey,
In the twists and turns around.
Who am I?
A question that haunts me day and night,
A quest for understanding,
A search for light..
"Who I am?" by –Nyx

Maybe I should take my brain out of my skull and give it a good rinse. Maybe that helps.

Im going to go on a small rant/vent
TW: Sh, substance abuse
I hadn’t had a single thing to smoke in maybe a little over two weeks now, they (my family) forced me to cold turkey this and I feel like shit.
I hate when I find something that gives me just an ounce of happiness or relief (cutting, vaping, sleeping etc.) is wrong and gets stripped away from me. Every year I end up getting sent to a psychiatric hospital and every time I come back it's always the same. There are always promises of change and yet nothing ever does- at this point, I accepted that I’m probably a lost cause. I don’t want to quit self-harming or vaping, I don’t want help, I don’t want to talk and I don’t want to be sent to yet another hospital so they can babysit my ass.
I’m not sure if this makes me selfish or a bad person...but damn I just want to stay happy for longer than a few minutes.

Officially adding ‘Part of Your World’ to the list of ‘songs that unintentionally resonate with the disabled’
Specifically from the beginning of the fourth verse
‘I've got gadgets and gizmos a-plenty
I've got whozits and whatzits galore
You want thingamabobs?
I've got twenty!
But who cares?
No big deal
I want more
I wanna be where the people are
I wanna see, wanna see 'em dancin'
Walking around on those, what do you call 'em?
Oh, feet
Flippin' your fins, you don't get too far
Legs are required for jumping, dancing
Strolling along down a, what's that word again?
Street
Up where they walk, up where they run
Up where they stay all day in the sun
Wanderin' free, wish I could be
Part of that world
What would I give if I could live out of these waters?
What would I pay to spend a day warm on the sand?
Bet'cha on land they understand
Bet they don't reprimand their daughters
Bright young women, sick of swimmin'
Ready to stand
And ready to know what the people know
Ask 'em my questions and get some answers
What's a fire and why does it, what's the word?
Burn?
When's it my turn?
Wouldn't I love, love to explore that shore up above?
Out of the sea
Wish I could be
Part of that world’

I wish I had friends. Being lonely sucks. I haven’t even been hugged in years. I want to have friends so bad and to not be lonely.

Understanding Borderline Personality Disorder and the Role of Lamotrigine in Treatment
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a complex mental health condition characterized by emotional dysregulation, unstable relationships, impulsivity, and an unstable sense of self. Research into the underlying causes of BPD suggests a combination of genetic predisposition, neurobiological factors, and environmental influences. BPD is challenging to diagnose and treat due to its intricate nature, but one potential avenue of treatment that has garnered attention is the use of the medication lamotrigine.
Lamotrigine is an anticonvulsant medication primarily used to treat epilepsy, but it has also shown promise in addressing mood disorders, including BPD. This medication works by modulating the activity of glutamate, an excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain. Glutamate has been implicated in the pathophysiology of BPD, particularly in relation to emotional dysregulation and impulsive behaviors. Lamotrigine's mechanism of action involves stabilizing glutamate transmission, potentially leading to improved emotional stability and reduced impulsivity in individuals with BPD.
Research on the efficacy of lamotrigine in treating BPD is ongoing, but several studies have provided insights into its potential benefits. A randomized controlled trial by Elmslie et al. (2010) found that lamotrigine reduced emotional dysregulation and impulsivity in individuals with BPD. Furthermore, Nock et al. (2012) conducted a study indicating that lamotrigine might help alleviate self-injurious behaviors frequently associated with BPD. However, it's essential to note that the response to lamotrigine can vary among individuals, and its use should be carefully considered in conjunction with other therapeutic approaches.
While lamotrigine holds promise as a potential treatment for BPD, it's crucial to approach its use with caution. Consulting a mental health professional is vital to determine the appropriate course of treatment for individuals with BPD. The complexity of the disorder and the variability in treatment responses highlight the need for personalized and comprehensive approaches that may involve psychotherapy, medication, and support networks.

Red tried to replace red
Made my body run on wine
Instead of blood
Just so my mind,
Would be quiet...
For just a small amount of time
