Interracial Dating PTSD
Interracial Dating PTSD By Anthony Anthem My momma warned me when came to your type When your dating while black and your woman is white When those dark intentions come out to the light You see the real person when you have your first fight I should of left at the very sign But I hated the fact that I was making you cry So I strapped myself up for a hell of a ride Now 2 years past in blink of an eye It went from I love her To I loathe her I was drunk off her love to sober I had enough of these daily hangovers Red and blue lights at my job with some orders Had me stressed out I justed wanted it over I felt 10 years older Weight on my shoulders Restraining orders Until October I went from boyfriend to that negro is an enemy Ever since that break up I look at white girls differentlyd

Somebody get the pacifier!!!
On to the next part of the story. We began our journey to Kansas City. The day we left my father was the first day of my third-grade school year. To be honest, until the leaving part, it was nothing to write home about.I honestly hated school in Florida and was always happy when my dad let me skip. I didn’t really like most of my classmates, it was boring, and a lot of the teachers were mean.

Alot happened in a month.
So…it’s been a while. A lot has happened since the last time I wrote. Starting with being in the freaking hospital for nine days with pneumonia. Let me tell you, I didn’t think I was going to make it. When I say I couldn’t breathe, it was like someone had a 100 lb weight on top of my lungs. The day I went in I got up, took a deep break, and a slow stabbing pain exuded from my chest with every breath. I checked on the internet (bad idea) to make sure it wasn’t a heart problem and of course I read that I have heart failure or cancer or some other not-quite-right catastrophe.

A.I.T.A. blackish edition.
Okay, this is one of those threads where I’ve got to ask a simple question: Am I the asshole? I’ll admit at the beginning that yes, I may have been the asshole, because maybe I should have found a different solution to my problem in this scenario.

2 am chronicles 2 the electric boogaloo
Hello Brain, we meet again. Reflecting on the last writings of my insomniac mind, I realized I forgot to consider a necessary factor in why I sleep so terribly. My emotional baggage doesn’t help one bit. I’m sorting through it like a never-ending load of dirty underwear and stained shirts. (Trust me, the less you know about the stains the better.)

How Does this Work?
For weeks I have seen commercials for this site called vocal and wondered, "what on earth is this platform?" They say it's a way to make money by telling your stories. My question to that is, "what stories are they wanting to know?" I want to figure out what exactly this platform is? So, here I am. Are you still reading this? My name is Anthony I come from the Midwest. I live in the Kansas City, Missouri Metro area. Yes, Missouri, not Kansas. The reason why I say that is because even that jackass (Donald Trump), who use to be in office, mistakes us as Kansas. When our Football Team, the Kansas City Chief's won the Super Bowl last year when he congratulated the great state of "Kansas" for their Super Bowl victory the previous year. Any consolation, we made shirts to commemorate "Kansas's Victory" in quick fashion as a middle finger for those who don't know how to read a geographical map. Anyway, I have been in Missouri for 20 plus years since my mother moved us here due to my parents splitting when I was about nine years old. And I have been here ever since.

2am Chronicles
It’s two in the morning as I’m writing this and the only thing on my mind is, fuck! Insomnia is one of the biggest pains in my life. It’s funny that it’s also the most consistent thing I’ve got going on, next to bills and my podcast. If I can’t depend on anything else, I can depend on insomnia coming in like a crackhead during a 3am stroll.

I guess it really runs in the family
I have lived with the diagnosis of bipolar disorder for about five years. I was diagnosed by a psychiatrist in 2016 when I accepted the fact that I needed the help. Mood swings, irritation, irrational thoughts, and manic depression were taking over my life. The truth is it’s still an everyday battle. I have had highs lasting several days, weeks, and even months. The lows have taken me to rock bottom, where I felt like I was losing everything, myself included.
