Alex, I’m so sorry about what you’ve gone through. D: I hope you have confided to someone about your situation. I know it’s hard to do so, but once you vent, it really, really helps. I’m hoping that you told your therapist, friends, or boyfriend. If you ever need to vent, my number is 678 886 7890, though I typically prefer to text or email (which is laurabhagenATyahooDOTcom).
I take it that the call with the administrator of HOPE was unsuccessful. Seriously, what a bunch of assholes. I want you to throw it in their faces when you overcome your struggles with school. Maybe your story can cause change. One can only hope. :/
I feel like anything I say will be belittling, so I’m going to wrap things up here. Though I will say that although your journal started off really sad, the ending really reads like a revelation that perhaps we can be the catalysts for change. It’s inspiring, and you really have a way with words.
I honestly didn't expect anyone to read this. I guess I just felt like I needed to get it out. I haven't really talked to anyone about it besides my therapist (and my mom and boyfriend), and I can't afford the therapy anymore. I've considered going to the free therapy clinic at my school, but my friend who is in graduate school is doing her practicum there and I just don't know how that would make me feel. I'm really private with all of it, but it's getting to the point where it's affecting me really badly with work and school, and I have days when I just don't want to even leave the house and I wish my friends and family knew why. Only a couple of them know, and my professors that semester didn't know, and I'm wondering now if I were more open about it if that would be better for me.
I really appreciate your response. It means a lot to me.
That sounds absolutely wonderful. I actually have family that live out there too, and so does my boyfriend. We were considering a trip out there after I graduate, but that is a year or so away at the least. But who knows? A trip out there would definitely do me some good. I love California
