my eye lid is anxious
back in 2011 I had a nervous breakdown. it was terrifying because I became mentally incapable to proceed with my normal activities and no one interjected. my parents are not into therapy and I did not seek help for myself because I was busy trying to keep the little that was left from crumbling apart.
the breakdown proceeded a bad school semester, a heartbreak, the lost of two friendships and the juggling between jobs. for some people (such as my mom), that is everyday. they can handle stuff because they are built differently. one of the toughest regards I heard from people was “that is my life everyday. millions of people go through the same thing and they don’t fail a semester of college”.
oh yeah, that is what happened. I failed a semester of college (four classes, miraculously I passed one class). a semester’s worth of tuition thrown into the garbage, graduating a semester behind my class, bearing the weight of forever hearing about 1/2011.
when I am stressed, my eyes twitch. it is not even a twitch, I think, it is a paced palpitation on my right lower eyelid. during 1/2011, that happened daily.
today it happened for a few hours. I was feeling stressed and the palpitation began. I panicked a little with the thought that my body was beginning to signal things are falling a part. but I had my share of a breakdown and as cliche as it may be, I learned from it. sadly, I am not super woman. but I can handle stuff on my pace, taking one thing at a time, giving up somethings to dedicate myself to what I consider to be priorities.
so I closed my eyes and told my eyelid we will be just fine this time.

glasses
it took me soo long to choose new glasses. my former pair was broken after a “where are my glasses” hunt (of course they were directly in front of me) and I was so sad to dispose (I donated my lenses) of them.
having to hunt for a new pair was a three week task. it made me feel silly for caring so much, especially because glasses can be expensive and it so happened my favorites were out of my price league. being choosy can feel awful. I kept expressing my gratefulness for being able to even choose while being really upset at my lack of choices.
so picking up new glasses was like, another simple daily life task where I felt awful about myself for days. life is fun.

people say there is space for mistakes when you as young as I am because most young adults have a comforting family to fall back on/means to begin from scratch. I am never sure whether this is real or not. the uncertainty of my choices corrupts me as a distant roar in my unconscious that at times becomes loud and disruptive.
sometimes I wish tattoos were not permanent/had less of an impact because I would love to get a really stupid tattoo.a unicorn on my breast, a quote from a movie or something with no significance that only seems profound because I am 22 and seemingly allowed to make mistakes.
