Hi! I'm nightmare lorde, a 24 year old female who's obsessed with the song "ceilings" by lizzy McAlphine. Before I get into the story of why I love this song so much let me tell you some things about myself first.
I'm a normal 24 year old with a normal 9/5 job with a seemingly normal life. Well at least that's what people thought whenever they saw me but to be honest? There was more to my life than what the eye could see. I had always struggled with mental health issues such as depression, anxiety disorder, eating disorder, heavily overthinking and attachment issues. For me it wasn't a big deal until it got really bad at the age of 20, well until I met a certain someone.My story starts one year ago. I woke up like every other day, stared at my ceiling for longer than I should've before I finally got out of bed, brushed my teeth and got ready to go to work. I would've never thought that my nightly walks with my dog would change my life forever but it did.
Work was really exhausting today so I immediately took a nap when I got home, the depressive episode hitting me harder than usual as I slept for 4 hours straight. Luckily my dog that I've gotten to help with my depression woke me up for our nightly walk. His fluffy body jumping onto my sleeping one as barks filled my ears until my eyes finally opened. I looked at him and sighted exhausted before my eyes slowly drifted to the clock on the wall in my living room.
"Huh it's 11pm already?"
I slowly sat up, putting my dog into my lap as I showered him with pets.
"At least you're as energetic as usual"
I chuckled before sitting my dog down on the floor and getting up, stretching my arms and back out that were sore from work.
My dog spun around a bit, jumping up and down happily and excited for the walk. He ran up to the door and I just sighed tiredly.
"Yeah, yeah I'm coming don't worry"
Slowly walking up to the door while putting on a jacket I picked up a leash for my dog and kneeled down to put him on his leash.
"I still gotta pick up some plates for work"
Yes you heard that right. I had to buy new plates for work because my clumsy self accidentally knocked 10 off the shelf they were on. My boss wasn't to happy about it so now I was the one who had to pay for new plates.
I wasn't the richest person but since my eating disorder had become way worse lately I knew I wouldn't pay to much money for food this month.Walking my dog at night was always a peaceful moment for me without overthinking or getting anxiety. The night sky was particularly beautiful today as I walked around the neighborhood, my dog sniffing every tree possible as my eyes were focused on the stars and moon. We went into some shops in the search of new plates, since my dog was still young I was able to bring him inside with me. I was staring at the expensive plates that I broke in my workplace, frowning slightly as I read the tag.
"60 dollars for plates? Are they serious?"
A sight escaped my mouth as I look down at my dog.
"Guess you're the only one getting lots of food this month"
After paying for the plates I looked at my now empty wallet before putting it into the picket of my jacket. Let me tell you walking around with a bag of 10 heavy plates and a young playful dog wasn't easy at all.
"King stop pulling so much damnit!"
King, my dog, apparently saw a squirrel and wanted to run towards it. The clumsy person I am, of course couldn't do anything about it and tripped over my own foot. I felt my body collide with the body of someone else, hearing a loud thud from me and the other person and the sound of porcelain shatter. The plates fell onto the ground and broke into a thousand pieces. My eyes widen at the sight and I instantly began to panic.
"No. No. No. No!"
I began picking up the pieces of the plates before I heard a soothing voice.
???"im so sorry! I should've watched where I was going. Here let me help you"————————————————————————
