Personal Narrative: Sitting In My Room Alone

Improved Essays
Sitting in my room alone. That’s how i felt. I still feel this way. I’ve felt this way ever since i was little. I guess all the words the kids would say, would reoccur in my head. “Ugly”, “Stupid”, “Nasty.” But as i got older into middle and high school it got worse. “Hoe”, “Slut” ,“Thot”, “Bitch.” There were nights where i would cry all night and nobody would hear. When i said nobody would hear, lowkey meant that nobody really cared to check on me in my room. A house filled with 5 people and not one came.
I would go to school with not an ounce of sleep because i couldn't stop crying. My mom as she would like to be called would call me names as well. Not only did i have to deal with the kids at school but also with her at home. Its sad though,

I wonder how i could love a person so much with all my heart but don't have an ounce left to love me. You learn when you grow up to love yourself just the way you are but i didn't grow up like that. I grew up having people point out my every flaw and it got to the point where i didn't need their help to find a flaw i was doing it on my own. Looking in the mirror every morning trying to see what was cute or even alright looking but i still find a way to point the worse thing. You’d think the person that was suppose to help you in life would instead of saying hurtful shit like everyone else.But crying my eyes out wasn't helping anymore as i got into 9th grade. It was a normal day in 9th grade. It was towards the beginning of the year. People would talk about me, but you know i just smiled. I couldn't do anything but smile and act like it …show more content…
By this time i had transferred schools and was clinically diagnosed as depressed by my doctor. I had to take 2 kinds of medication for it. Once i started my new school i met a group of 4 girls who were very close. The took their time to get to know me. After a while of knowing each other one of the girls realised what i was doing. She yelled at me telling me i shouldn't be doing this type of stuff and that i should have never harmed my soft beautiful skin. Then from that moment once i got home i threw away my razors and instead of marking my body i would mark the pages in my

    Now, however, I was shy, timid, and scared to make new friends. At home, I pretended to be happy at home to fool my parents, but on the inside I was very sad and depressed. Since I was not your “typical girl” and wore “boy-ish” clothes, none of the girls wanted to talk to me. They thought that I was weird and did not want to be associated with the “weird girl.” When I tried to make friends, they would try their very best not to include me into the conversation.…

    My six word memoir was “Fought through the labyrinth of solitude” because I wasn’t really alone physically because I had my family but none of them understood me or I couldn’t show them I true self, like who I really am. It wasn’t really easy to do because I felt insecure even though I shouldn’t feel that way. I stayed true to myself and I kept that in mind and it gave me the strength to push through. So mentally I was me but outside I was a totally different person that everybody expected me to be but even though I had some faith that that would end someday.…

    The crisp breeze rustled my hair as I walked out of my house on the fall September day with my dad drilling instructions into my head. It was my first Little League baseball game ever, and my dad wanted to make sure it wasn’t my last. Being seven years old and never touching a baseball was something that had scared me; a lot. I had no idea what to think about this foreign, petrifying, game could possibly be about. The car ride from my house was only a few minutes away from the fields where I would begin my baseball career.…

    After reading The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls, I realized how our lives are both similar and completely different. It’s hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that someone who is fairly famous and someone who has no significance in this world can be alike in many ways. Having read this book a few years back, it was actually helpful to me. It may have been helpful in the most indirect way possible, but helpful nonetheless. The Glass Castle had a small part in helping me through my problems with depression and anxiety.…

The sky was crystal blue; the sun was shining, with a slight breeze. I could not have asked for a more perfect day.
