Speak up

Friday, March 24, 2023

I need to learn to speak up and not let things fester.

I swear, I cannot believe my relationship with the boyfriend has lasted almost 10 years. We both hold everything inside. Our communication skills are crap. I am always too afraid, too nervous, to say to him what’s on my mind. I feel like he would perceive me as nagging or bitchy. In reality, he’s just as bad. We spend more time in silence than actually telling each other how we feel. I hold it all in and I let it eat away at me. I’m sure it doesn’t help my depression, at all.

Now I feel like crap.
