I find it easier to scrawl down my thoughts on this than to talk to people. It's not normal for a person to feel like this, is it?
I've been on autopilot a lot recently, I'm just moving from day to day with no purpose or meaning. I get up, I do what needs to be done then I sleep. Nothing exciting, new or remotely challenging. It's a weird point that seeing as I obviously have things that challenge me (two uni resits to be precise) but even then they can be boiled down into something that seems easy. Maybe that is the problem. Maybe I think TOO much.
The worst part of all of this is that these feelings have been worse since my uncle died. I think it is affecting me more than I thought it did. I wasn't necessarily close with him. I spoke to him on the few times I seen him. I didn't speak ill of him like I've done with the rest of my uncles from that side of the family. I don't miss him. I don't. It is a weird state. I've not really experienced death before. Relatives died when I was younger but I don't remember too much about then. It was my first funeral. I seen his coffin carried into the parlour. I've never seen that before.
On top of all of this I'm getting the feeling that I'm the elephant in the room for my friends. There are times where I am perfectly fine then there are times like just now where there is a group of 6 + me. Guess who is sitting by themselves.
Yup. Me.
It happens a lot. I get two or three people asking if I am okay (to my face anyways) but it is always a brief "I'm fine" then I wave them away. I don't think people know how to deal with me when I'm like this. Fuck, I don't know how to handle me when I'm like this. Usually I can block myself away from the world but I can't keep doing this. I feel as though I'm just being stupid and selfish and a little bitch really but at the same time it's not the first time I've felt like this. It just happens more frequently now and I don't like it but I don't know who to talk to about it
