Me

Ever feel like you’re alone When standing in the middle of a crowd? Feeling like waldo in a find waldo book. Like you no longer belong The awkwardness is tearing you down. Hating the way you view your self and wishing for a way out. The emotional roller coaster of highs and lows Knowing you have tried to overcome. Never giving up before Right now I am looking for the door. Am I kidding myself? Can I figure it out?

Hi Cory - You are going through what a lot of people go through...so be strong...and hang in there! You have a creative streak. Be sure to cultivate this. Really like the line "Feeling like waldo in a find waldo book"...that's an innovative way of describing how you feel. - Gail
