Nightmares and Nobody to Talk to
I ran out of medicaiton last night...there really was nothing I could do. I still need to set up an appointment with my physician to get my Rx filled, finally, but just a word to whomever reads this: If it sounds overly morose, depressed, or all together a desparate cry for help, just know that my medication wore off as I was sleeping last night, and I have yet to go and get some more from my Mom's office.
Nightmares and migranes...that's what I get for not taking my medication...what I get for letting myself run out, even for a day. How can things be this bad? I just found out that a friend got in a car accident, almost died. I just went and answered the phone, and then layed down on the bed with my kitty, and tried to pet him, and he walked away. That might seem like insignificant drivvel, but that just broke my heart. I don't want to say that that's what ruined my day, but that's the point when I reallized that today is just failed...already. I've only been up 15 minutes, and it already is enough to make me want to fling myself over a cliff. [know that I have no INTENTIONS of doing so, just the want, and that's due to the lack of medication]
How is it fair that Satan can use something MEDICAL, like depression against us? Its completely not fair...as of right now I am doing NOTHING to contrary to the teachings of the Gospel. I've been trying to read my scriptures, trying to cut back on my swearing, working my butt off, have plans to pay my tithing today, haven't masturbated in about a week [trying to stop, yet again...though I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't tempted], caught myself before looking at porn...I'm typically doing a good job...and yet, still, when I'm not on some blasted medication, my psychie is still ravaged by a depression, the root of which I'm not even certain as to the source.
I say I'm not certain as to the source, because, while still attracted to men, lately I've been trying to just put it out of my mind. I've got plans to move forward with my life, and I feel good about them, and following the path of homosexuality is NOT included in them. I've even been toying with the idea of dating girls...I want to date girls again [though, ever girl I have the almost-guts to talk to about dating, I then find out, is taken]...I should be doing good, right? According to my reasoning, yes...but here I am, unmedicated, and still miserable.
I have to work tonight, and I feel like I'm getting sick...that's what I get for working 50+ hours a week...but the money is soo good...not good enough, but making money is good...and when I'm working, I rarely if ever think of my SSA problems. Me working my butt off is a good thing.
I'd better go drive up to get that medication from my mom before this migrane turns worse, and before I turn full-fledged suicidal...I'm going to continue to try to look on the positive...I'm going to try to read my scriptures...I'm going to try to pray...I'm going to try to be a good boy. I'm going to try to gain the approval of the male figures in my life, when I know/feel that I never will...maybe that's why I have a hard time trusting God? Because I don't trust my own father, and thus, how could any kind of Father be trustworthy? My Heavenly Father is supposed to be a glorified model of what MY father is, right? To the maximum extent...still not a comforting idea...I still have a hard time trusting. I suppose I'll tell him that.

Curse that blasted lack of meds! That's no good, dude; get on that ASAP. What are you on right now? It seems to be doing some good things for you. I'm really proud of the changes you've been making in your life, and it's so wonderful to hear you making good plans and clinging to righteous desires and hangin in there. And check it out...that whole "Heavenly Father is a glorified model of your own father" can be false-doctrinized way too easily. I think it's a great thought, but unfortunately it doesn't apply to the large portion of humanity who DON'T have exemplary fathers. Heavenly Father is the ultimate father figure, not just...your own father made better. He's got His own separate personality, and one that's WAY different from your own earthly dad's. You can trust Heavenly Father, I promise, and I think He understands that it will just take you some time to learn to do that. Just keep trying; He'll be there and He loves you. And the same goes for me!

Hey bud. I dont have internet right now....its sad. So im trying to keep up with you. I know how you feel though. That little insignificant thing that goes wrong...lol. On sunday I was feeling depressed all day. I grabbed a book I've been reading, I didn't like how the ending turned out and for some reason I felt like someone I knew died. Its like I realized the rest of my dad sucked too. So Im totally with you on that. I hope to talk to you soon (as I hope to get my internet back.)

Hey buddy, I can very much understand where you're coming from (a Gay Mormon). Its a tough road, but I def. have a different outlook than you do....maybe its the fact that I always did have a different outlook on the Mormon relgion, and thankfully (for me) I was raised outside of the Utah / Idaho mindset....anyways. Just wanted to say hi, let you know you have readers, esp. ones who are in the same shoes as you. Email me (if there is a way you can do that thru my blog?) if you like, I'd be glad to talk and what not. Best of luck!

I came across your blog by accident. You sound like a normal healthy person, it's sounds like you're surrounded by people who are trying to make you into something you're not. "Running away from problems" is what defines them. They are lost sheep looking towards the skies for answers. You have two feet firmly on the ground with the gift of understanding. The real world is not going to go away. Just play your part. These people have already rejected you, there's nothing you can do to change that. Get out of that bubble, find some people like you and live your life. You are normal...
