I'll be close behind  
Ive never written in my personal journal so much before, it's usually weeks between entries and nothing this private. I guess these are exceptional circumstances, it just occured to me as I started writing - another useless thought that jumped into my head.

I slept properly, finally. I just fell sideways about 8am and slepyt through to 6pm ish, my neck and shoulder hurt like fuck where I landed and then slept awkwardly, but at least I slept I suppose.

After devouring that sandwich yesterday, I haven't eaten again. I went offline to try for some food a little earlier and failed miserably. I don't care, I'm trying to eat because of a promise made to a friend, but I can't bring myself to care that I'm not. I'm sorry, that's selfish and I'm horrible for thinking that way. I'm trying.

I wish I could help everyone else, I want to be able to take away everyone's pain. I know I can't, and people keep saying I need to focus on healing myself, but I can't. I just can't. I can't even think about living right now, just existing each moment. And that's hard enough.

I've fallen back on roleplaying as a distraction, it sounds heartless and I don't mean it to be. It lets me pretend to be not me for a small while, just concentrating on stupid mundane things like characterisation and stuff. Because if I'm concentrating on things that don't matter, stupid little things that really aren't important in the long run, then I don't think about the bone-crushing agony of what the reality is. And that's what I need at the moment, it's TOO much, too raw and too huge to think about at the moment.

I spoke to Callie again today. For anyone who wants it, she linked me to this Facebook group for Shannon.

None of this probably makes any sense.

It makes sense, Ena.

It's hard, and I can't imagine how it must feel. I really can't, but I can try. And we're here for you, if not physically, but mentally and spiritually we are here for you. We love you, we want to help in any way we can.

It's not selfish of you to feel sad. it's not mean, it's not wrong. It's not your fault if you can't take the pain away, it's not something that can be done just like that. So please... try not to hate yourself for it. We love you so, so much. Try not to give up, if you can.

*hugs* I'm glad you finally were able to get some sleep.

Thanks for the link to the Facebook group, I joined, but I don't know what to write on there yet.

If you need to talk or RP, I'm here, just let me know, okay?

It's great that you slept. And it's great that you've eaten.

Distraction is fine when you need it. If you want to ask about other things in the world, about other people's lives, about rp or what have you. That's fine. Don't feel bad about or like we're going to get mad cos your not focusing on yourself.

I looked at those pictures. Shannon is adorable!!

There's nothing wrong with needing a distraction, bb.

Sometimes it hurts too much, and you just need something to take your mind off it for a little while. The whole reason I started roleplaying was because my dad died and I couldn't handle thinking about it all the time. There's nothing wrong in finding ways to cope, and no one would ever blame you for doing whatever is needed for you to heal and keep going.

If there's anything at all I can do to help, I will. Whether it's rp or just someone to talk to. I love you and want you to be alright.

Hunny, you shouldn't feel bad. *hugs* It's not heartless, and this makes sense hun.

No. It makes perfect sense. RP is a way to escape... to not be you, to be someone else, and that's an amazing thing when you're feeling as badly as you do.

And... I know it's hard, but do try to take care of yourself, alright? So many of us would be really upset if something happened to you because you didn't eat right or something... so just be careful, okay?

And you're not being selfish. This is time you need for you- to take care of yourself, to let the wounds recover. You focus on what you need to do... I guarantee you, people understand. And it's okay, I promise.

Hi Sweetpea. Don't blame yourself for finding a way to cope everyone should and everyone is different in how they cope. Don't give up. JUST BREATHE.
