September 2009

Dear Journal,

The last couple of days have been fine. People have asked how I was and asked about the bandages. I just lied and told them it was some freak footballing accident. I don't even play football. I've never seen the point (being all sweaty for a few cheers, yay?). At this point, lying is easier than hearing people''s false sympathies. I have talked to Phil though. He is the only one I would never lie to about all of this. We have now allotted a time every evening for us to talk. That's the best part of my day. He even sent me a text saying how much it meant to him that I was willing to talk to him about this. That he'll never get tired of talking about my depression. Whenever I needed him he was there. That's all you need to know right now.
