I always get like this at this time of the year. I'm drained from studying so much which forces me to get stressy at other people, which really upsets me because I don't mean to do it. I've been having late nights too because I can't seem to fit in everything I want to do into my days. And then with revision and work I haven't been seeing or talking to my friend's much which is honestly like torture.
I can't possibly describe how I'm feeling, not in words anyway. I could probably put together a bunch of strange looking gestures that would look something like what my mind is feeling but again, that's hard to do too. I'll try and explain anyway though.
It's like a crushing feeling, a helplessness. I think it's due to spending so much time indoors. I just want to curl up and be alone with all my problems 'cos really, they can't be sorted out by anyone but me. It's that... as I was sitting at the table about to write an essay, I got this urge to do something that I made myself stop doing about three years ago. I guess you could call it self-abuse, but it's so strange, something I don't think I've told anyone but my Mum and some woman from CAMHS about. It probably sounds far worse than it is, but basically I think I damaged my eyes doing it and my theory is that it's the reason why I have to wear glasses now. It scares me to feel like I want to do it again. I know it's because I'm tired but just the echo of that urge makes me want to burst into tears.
I really want to know what people think this "urge" is now. I guess is sounds like it could be anything. Seriously, it's nothing too crazy, you'd probably just think I had "issues" if I did it in public. Haha, now I'm making it sound even worse.
Anyway, I'll be fine soon, I know I will. The last of my exams are next week. I can spend the summer lying in the sun a lot and healing. The art is to forget about it. I haven't done it in three years so why would I want to do it again?

Just think about your exams aren't going to be going on forever, after that you can lie in the sun and talk to your friends all you like
And the people around you are going to be concious of the stress that you're under at the moment, we're all going through the same thing with exams. They'll understand.
