My psychologist (like any good psychologist) rarely gives much information on his own life, but once when I spent the session crying trying to explain about how I kept trying to pinpoint where everything went wrong, why all the bad stuff happened he said to me something along the lines of 'I don't know what it's like for you, but I do know how you feel, but the more you look for that answer, the more it'll drive you crazy'. I dismissed it as psychobabble, as time goes on and the questions drive me crazier and crazier I see the wisdom in what he said.

Dear Hunni

Writing a diary is theraputic in itself, so just write what you feel and think at the time. Life throws some pretty (more like ugly) crazy shit at us and dealing with it can be totally overwhelming at best. Hang in there and just don't give up. Don't just be strong for the people in your life. Be strong for yourself - yeah, even if you feel like roadkill. There's a lot of satisfaction to be found in just getting up and getting on with life.

Good luck.
