EVERY TIME MY MENTAL HEALTH GETS CLOSE TO IT'S WORST, I START GETTING SUPER SELF-CENTERED AS AN (OBVIOUSLY UNHEALTHY) COPING MECHANISM, AND I START THINKING OF MYSELF AS THE "MAIN CHARACTER" AGAIN, BUT WHEN I PICK UP ON THIS, I TRY TO STOP, BUT I STOP TOO HARD AND IT TURNS INTO SELF-HATRED THAT I'M NOT WILLING TO OPENLY AND FULLY DISCUSS, AND IT SITS THERE INSIDE OF ME UNTIL MY NEXT MENTAL BREAKDOWN WHEN THE CYCLE BEGINS ALL OVER AGAIN; I NEVER ACCOMPLISH ANYTHING THAT COULD GET ME OUT OF THIS LOOPING CYCLE, I TRY TO DROP HINTS THAT I NEED HELP BUT AM TOO AFRAID TO SAY SO, BUT THEY'RE IGNORED AND I CAN'T JUST OUTRIGHT TELL SOMEONE WITHOUT HAVING AN ANXIETY ATTACK AND THROWING UP, I'M STUCK IN THIS LOOP AND I DON'T EVEN CARE ENOUGH TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT
