So since I put up my "Trapped" journal after another daily fight with my mother, a lot of my best friends asked me if my super happy self is jsut to counteract my home life. After thinking about that, I realize it's completely true. It's not that my happiness is fake, it's just that I have to be an eternal optimist just to balance out how unhappy I am at home. I mean my natural personality is...

I attempt an escape every single day. Whether it be to my mind, to friends, or just outside. I try my hardest to hide, or run away from this home, but i always end up coming back. Why do I do this to myself? Pretend that it will all be better once I return? Tell myself that maybe I was overreacting, maybe I was wrong, and we can talk. No. There is no chance of a discussion. There is a high chance...
