i just switched my resume back to my deadname. this is so humiliating.
i’ve found myself thinking dark thoughts again as i do not want to live in a world i have to work in order to survive in. and on top of that i get dressed and go to work everyday as someone i am not? but i know i’ll do it anyway. and that makes me even more sick. this complacency. i’m driving myself insane. and no one understands. this to me is incredibly embarrassing and demeaning. i feel like such a fucking bum going out with friends and they have to pay for me.

i’ve been staying in by myself now and im running out of money. i’m down to my last $49. i don’t know what to do. i think i am going to be homeless. i miss my mom.
