Right now I'm
miserable.
My insomnia has been bad the last few weeks, 2 hour minimum till I pass out once I start trying to fall asleep. I've been steadily depressed (atypical, not major) for the last 4ish months since getting out of rehab. Some ups, but mostly a medium sub par. I only get to see my girlfriend in person once a week at best because she's going to school at UCSC. I really want to attend a university myself, but I have a GED and 4 years since I been in school, So I have a lot of fear about trying and failing to get into a university. I know I need to take a community college 2 years then transfer route, but I'm afraid of failure. It's going to be difficult. And even if I currently had faith in myself, I don't know what the fuck to do with my life and that's what I've been saying for 5 years of using drugs, the last 5 months of sobriety haven't gotten me any closer to deciding.
I dunno, I'm just depressed. Like I said, not major depressive, but atypical, where it's basically always a constant subpar emotional state with an inability to enjoy anything.
Oh yeah, did I mention other than my girlfriend I have like zero real friends, and no one else in the world that I feel close to? She isn't my higher power, but idk what I'd do without her. I had to drop ALL my friends when I got clean, and it killed me. I don't relate to anyone here. I know a ton of people from AA meetings, but don't feel socially comfortable enough with any of them to hang out. When I try, I can't ever think of anything to talk about and who wants to hang out with the guy who never says anything. I miss the social aspects of drug use, more than the euphoria actually. I miss being able to approach and hang out and have fun and talk about things with anyone I meet.
Usually I'm really good at ignoring shit like this and pretending I'm fine. but I'm not fine. I'm fucking sad.
edit:
Also, I miss my fucking cat. When I went to rehab 5 months ago I had to send my cat back to my dads house in Jersey, haven't seen her since. Anyone that's really close to a pet would understand how much that sucks.
