I’m pretty sure it’s not okay to push your friend down in the wet grass when she has mono and cramps and is in a bad mood anyway, then help her up, push her back down, help her up, push her down… Then help her up and ‘accidentally’ grab naughty places. Not okay, Tara. Not okay.
However, you did get me an ice pack later, so I forgive you.
Until the next time you beat me up…

Living three different lives isn’t easy. It’s draining; mentally, emotionally, and physically. Trust me, I know.
It was my freshman year, and at the top of the food chain, for middle school anyway.I had my group of friends, and we had established our place in the caste system of South Hills Middle School. Everything was great for a little while, but I had come to the point in my life where the choices that I was making were ones that would follow me into my future years. This reality became the center to all my thoughts. It also made me realize that the decisions I was making with the people I thought were my friends were ones that would have a lifelong negative effect.
It took all the courage in me to walk up to my friends of six years and tell them that I could no longer associate with them, I did it. Knowing that the end result would benefit me gave me that push. It was tough for a little while, and it took some time to get back on my feet, but I did it.
By about second quarter, I had a new friend that I would soon know as my life support because during that quarter my life changed. The group of girls that I used to be friends with me made up a rumor about me that spread through the whole school like wildfire. I had become the center of the entire schools jokes. For a while I had no idea why everyone hated me. I was so confused as to why people I used to talk to in the hallways were walking past me glaring then calling me names behind my back. It was hard hearing the words slut and whore follow my name. It was humiliating, and several times it sent me to the bathroom stall in tears.
I felt like I was living three different lives, and fighting three different battles. I had my school life where I wasn’t excepted. The friends that I had trusted six years prior to my freshman year had completely betrayed me. Then there were the nameless faces that stared and me, knew everything about me (or so they thought) but I couldn’t tel you the name or grade of half of them.
Then there was my home life. I didn’t want my mom or dad to know what was going on at school, because it was embarrassing too for me. So, while I was a home I had to act like I wasn’t dying a little bit every time my alarm clock rang. I had to act like going to school didn’t take every ounce of energy I had. I had to act happy. To act what you don’t feel is a hard thing to do, and I commend those who succeed at it. The fight within myself was the hardest to win. Everyday I would walk through the front door of my house, and a sigh of relief would release itself from my lungs. School was over. Next my mind would begin to tweak and turn it would go into the dark spaces that you didn’t know you had. I began contemplating death.
I had fallen into a depression that I didn’t know possible. I felt alone in everything that I did. I thought of myself as a waste of space and air. People hated me because there was nothing to like about me. I began depriving myself of food and sleep. I bet the maximum amount of sleep I got that year was probably about four hours. The purpose of everyday was to think of a new way I could take my life. The only thing that kept me from doing that was the thought of my mom finding me, and what my best friend, my only friend, would do without me.
Self mutilation became an out for me, when I sliced my skin and saw the blood drip down my arms, or my legs I felt a different kind of pain. Any kind of pain felt better than the one that was eating at my insides constantly.
I guess the turning point for me was when I found out my ‘best friend’ was just as guilty as any other person at that school. She was saying everything everyone else was, and even worse, she was joking with people about my suicidal thoughts. Saying, “I was probably better off dead.” When I found these things out my head flooded with thoughts. I had gone through this whole thing on my own. I never had one friend. I was going through the hardest time in my entire life, and I did it on my own. I guess I decided that I wasn’t weak after all. Those few thoughts were strong enough to make me change my entire self.
I guess in a way I have to thank the girl I called my friend, even though she destroyed me, she helped me put myself back together.
So many good things happened this day:
What’s better then that, really?
