[/quote]But just like in Geometry Dash Lite , progress is still progress, even if you keep hitting the same spikes. One day, that jump will land, and the level will open up. Until then, you deserve grace and understanding, especially from yourself.[/quote] Hey, if I keep hitting the same spikes, I'm...

[/quote]Do you feel more comfort from connection with people, with God, or from time alone and how does that change depending on your mood?[/quote] With God, I feel better. Time alone, either makes me go numb or sad. If I'm angry, I usually feel a little distant from God, and when that happens I ten...

I guess, overall, it's not a real big loss since he's far away and we're never going to see each other. But still it hurts when a nice friendship comes to an end; and now I have no one. I feel like throwing up a lot of times just thinking about it. I don't think you know just how much I relate to t...

If I try to speak, nothing comes out

Funny how I have been thinking exactly the same thing for myself. I cringe when I read old posts, journaling (or diary), and memories of the old days. I don't know if there's a term for this? I can imagine entertainers must feel that way in seeing or hearing what they did in the past. Literally!

I'm a bit lonely. It's not as bad as it was before, or maybe I'm just getting more numb as the days go by, more unbothered. I can't even cry anymore. No tears will come out. Maybe a drop if I try. I tried clearing the air with someone I care about but got hurt by. I typed out a long message, but I d...

I hate the spring and fall season, simply because I hate university. It's the busiest time for me, and the most stressful. But these days, thinking about God has put me in a lovely mood. It's like I'm walking on clouds.

I always used to struggle with intense feelings of lonelinesss, especially in school. Now it's not so intense, just barely there at the surface, seeming bugger than it is when I zone in on it. I pity myself. I have 168 contacts and I probably only speak to one. And no one messages me either. I hardl...

You know when artists look back on music they made ten years ago, and then they cringe or laugh uncontrollably? They'd say old music is like reading their diary from ninth grade. Yea, that's how I feel reading old posts on here. Or rereading my seventh grade diary, or reading anything I wrote before...

I got hurt just enough to be saddened and upset, and fry at the world and everyone around me, but not hurt enough. Not hurt enough to be validated in my feelings, not hurt enough and not loud enough in my hurt, so my hurt was ignored. What's the weird limbo, when You're not happy...but not sad enoug...

You’re not alone — your pain is real, and Speed Stars your feelings are valid. Please keep holding on, and be kind to yourself. Hi Jennie, I know in my head that my emotions are valid, but it doesn't feel that way. And it's hard to be kind to myself. But thank you, and you have such a pretty name

I'm sorry you feel this way. I'm feeling the same, so all I could say is, "join the club" Maybe that doesn't make you feel better, but I feel the same and I guess many others do, too. I'm sure many others do even though it looks like they have it all together. I feel like, especially late...

I posted a lengthy letter on here a few weeks ago, detailing my experiences with COCSA and how it made me feel...how it affected me. Hours went by before I deleted it and I sort of regret it. I still have the letter but, I don't think I'll ever repost it because I'm ashamed of other people knowing s...

I just found out that my little brother (11 M) has been getting harassed by a grown man. He walks to and from school. Apparently this man says he'll beat him up when he sees him. My brother had a cast on his hand a few months ago and the guy had asked about it, but my brother ignored him. He's been ...

I have no one to talk to, and the persons closest to me hurt me. How incredibly pitiful. How unexplainably sad. To feel so unheard, and belittled. To feel like I'm taking one step forward and ten steps back. To feel so wronged, and deserving of mistreatment at the same time. To feel so dumb, to feel...
