Scrawled Ramblings
journal 19: death & alcohol
growing older is Terrifying

I'm not very good at taking care of myself
I never intended to live this long
and to be honest
i still don't have any kind of
sustainable plan

I just drink
& drink

my suicide plans have grown more.concrete over the years
the more I hurt
the more I drink
the more I hurt
the more I plan

it's not the Impulsive Urges of my Youth
it's not a dramatic gesture, no Noble Sacrifice

it's just.... Defeat

I don't want to die today
but it's the only plan I have
and sometimes it feels like I'm just waiting
for a bad enough day

maybe there another way out
but
sobriety terrifies me

I keep googling my symptoms
and everything keeps coming back
Alcohol Abuse

I lied to my doctor about how much I drink
I was afraid they wouldnt renew my prescription

it's still early enough to turn things around
sometimes I wish I could just have my life back
but I wouldn't know.what to do with it

my bad decisions are just another prison
but there's some comfort in pretending
there was any kind of choice in the first place
