Trapped

Confessions
I’ve been working at my job for roughly 10 months now and I hate my job. Something about
this job from the beginning really didn’t feel right. The environment, the people, the way I
came in. I just feel like I’m not a good fit there. I don’t belong there.
I walk in there everyday and I feel like crap. I want to quit but I can’t find the courage to just
go because I don’t have any money saved, no other job lined up and if I do quit, I don’t even
know where I would go. I feel trapped.
The guilt
I copied someone else's answer on a quiz today and the guilt is eating me alive.
It was an answer I knew, too, but I second-guessed myself because I was tired
and anxious and I had answered similarly on a different question. I thought,
"there's no way the answer I put will be right", and not to mention I was going
really slow and was the last person to finish, so yeah, I copied. Now I'm paranoid.
I'm definitely going to get caught and kicked out of university.
I feel nothing for
my newborn son
New baby boy and I feel nothing. I'm supposed to be excited for my new family. But I feel nothing.
Complete emptiness for him. Just empty. I want to be excited...but I'm not. I didn't tell my wife this. I
suppose it's just that the little guy is a complete stranger. I will try to be involved as much as posssible.
Hold him, help care for him, be kind and maybe overtime I would grow to love him.
Just fun
I like to wrap myself in my blanket and
wiggle to the other side of my house as
fast as I can. I've gotten to be fairly fast.
