Feel Like A 5 Year Old

I feel like a 5 year old most of the time. I take things so literally these days. :( I don't know why. i just feel like i believe what every one tells me. If someone told me the sky was green, i'd probably believe it because my whole life turned upside down. (But I know the sky is blue) I thought i knew what life was about and was happy being me with some little things I hated like talking and questioning myself. But now a days I just don't know what end is up any more.

i used to look forward to things like graduation. The end was near and such and i could look forward to relaxing. but now its jsut me... just life. not going to end any time soon, so it just seems like a forever timeline with an end somewhere. my mind is blank 24/7 and i just feel like one of those teenage girls who twirl their hair looking spaced out not hearing a word you say and locked up in a moment in their head.

I just can't take this feeling any more.
I feel trapped inside my own body. I just feel like everyone and everything changed. When it didn't change. I just want to sleep and never wake up, but I know that's too hard to ask for.

I just feel like I can't do things on my own any more. I just feel sooo darn low. I was thinking bout taking an adult class but I have trouble just following the news. And i don't know why i would want to take a class. I just don't feel like doing anything.

I just feel like everyone is mean. You see all the people on the news about doing bad things. How are you supposed to tell the mean people apart from the nice people? I am just tired of being hurt. I used to be able to escape everything by going into my own imagination... but i can't any more.

When my symptoms were at their worst--and I hope I never relapse back to that hell--I would feel my entire *body* transform into the body of a toddler. Quite literally, I'd roll up on the sofa with my knees in my face and feel like I'm in the child's frame. It used to terrify and confuse me. Thankfully that has not happened anymore.
