My feelings
Within the last three or four years, a lot of really bad things have happened, so I tend to abuse drugs to try to take the edge off of the severe, gnawing nothingness that I've been feeling. I drank small amounts of Listerine to become tipsy periodically over the course of the couple last months, and I was almost happy. Recently, however, I was feeling worse than normal and I drank almost an entire 32 FL OZ bottle of Listerine, and I was extremely out of it, only remembering very small bits of the experience. I stayed up for two or three days afterwards, feeling physically and emotionally numb, but once I went to sleep I felt like everything had miraculously gotten better. Now, everything's breaking down again, even though nothing significant has happened yet. I don't really feel much of anything emotionally, except extremely empty and worthless. I don't want to bother anyone in my real life with my problems, so I'm coming here. Is any of this normal?
