Dear Reader, 10/11
I tried thinking about how to tell you everything but it just made my head hurt. How do you tell someone about what has been going on in hopes they'll understand. I want to be an open book. I'm still trying to figure out what that means. My therapist says making an effort to open up to others may make everything easier but I still struggle. High school by no means was a walk in the park and especially not for a guy like me. I get that nobody ever said it would be easy but you don't realize the gravity of things until you are truly there. I took everything literally and it caused riffs in my life. These are the riffs I am hoping to open up about to gather a more aware and "open book" life style.
School was never easy for me but I didn't let it be either. My therapist used to tell me, you have to introduce yourself or how do you expect people to know you? I've always never opened up it's just not my style. When my peers looked at me it was always, "Hey! Hey you kid with the scar, what's wrong with you?" I used to say I don't know. I didn't know for a long time how to explain it. I pretended I didn't see their stares and how they mocked my slowed movements. The system of events in my life felt so jumbled I couldn't remember where things would start and where they ended. I know what you are thinking and no, I'm not on drugs that's a different story.
