5 things I've not told anyone

1. I have avoided going to see a therapist more times than I can remember. I’m not sure why I try to avoid them. It’s probably just because I don’t want hear them tell me how screwed up I really am. However, the ironic point about this is how I am most of my close friend’s therapist, and they all acknowledge this as well.

2. I feel like a failure most of the time. Rarely am I proud of what I have accomplished because it doesn’t feel like anything in comparison to people around me.

3. My biggest fear is losing the people closest to me. Not necessarily to death, but because of me doing something incredibly stupid.

4. I will not wear overalls. When I was in 7th grade, I didn’t realize I got my period and I was wearing overalls. It got all over the back of and everyone in my gym class saw, and laughed hysterically. I haven’t worn them since.

5. I don’t like my name. I don’t think it fits me.
