People don’t understand me. They call me a liar all the time; they say I’m crazy because I can see things nobody else can. I’m not crazy and I lie only a little bit, it’s not my fault I’m a sensitive.

She doesn’t believe me when I say I can see and hear the things I do, she calls me an attention seeker. I’m not though, I hate being social.

But it’s not all happy-go-lucky times for me, when I tell people what I see and try to make them understand they call me a liar or attention whore, I get really upset and I cut. I’ve been cutting since I was thirteen, that’s four years. Sometimes it doesn’t hurt but others it hurts like hell. But in the end it makes me feel better, Jimmy hates it when I do that. He says I’m ruining a perfect piece of art. Some days I think I’m fucking crazy for being able to do this. Its insanity, really it is. I’m sick and tired of not being trusted or believed. When I was fifteen I was diagnosed as a bipolar. When I get angry at people afterwards I have a mental break d

My mom is sending me to Ocean View to ‘cure’ me. I can’t be cured I’m cursed. My Grandma always said I was bless with a curse, when I was little I didn’t know what she meant by that but now I do. My name’s Max, I’m from Scranton, Pennsylvania. I’m going to Ocean View to make it seem like I’ve gotten better so I don’t end up in a loony bin.
