You’ve Got More Than What You Thought
On the night my boyfriend has a seizure after his 50th alcohol detox, we are placed in a room next to the ER psych ward.

I’m scared of what you’re going to tell me and I’m done feeling unsure anymore.
Everyone thinks I’m better again, but how do you tell them that you’re not? That you’re still broken, even though you thought you weren’t?
Before I continue, I feel obligated to include a disclaimer: this is not a recounting of a life-changing event.
I think about just telling you everything. They always write about a girl’s insecurity on this site, but they never talk about how insecure the perfect woman makes the man that loves her.
When I was 15, I met someone who changed my life.
I wish I knew what was wrong.
Love is devastating and all-consuming and terrible in its resistance to all things logical.
When you have no core sense of self, it’s easy to be anyone.
I should let you suffer and realize that life without me will be dreary and hard. You need to realize all sorts of things on your own – but I don’t want you to feel like you’re alone.
