but it’s really worth the effort of being conscious when each mood spike comes.. what i did was focus on the good side of things.. and if i do need to be quiet, then i try to answer that need without ‘hurting’ people in the process…

my erratic mood swings just caused me and my 2 roommates to split up. not that I go berserk when i’m in a bad mood… on the other hand, I clam up, being able to keep silent for days in a row. and they just couldn’t stand the silence. Pleeeaaassse! I’m the typical Cancerian, so what?! Can’t deny the moon’s pull on me. And they just don’t know how hard it is to get out of one of those ‘silent’ moments which unfortunately, seem to stretch into forever, no matter how much I try to get out of the rut I’m in. It’s like clambering out of this deep dark well, struggling for a foothold. Nothing. I get weary. Nobody’s coming to pull me out. And skulking in the corner, I see-saw between feelings of self-pity that no one’s bothered long enough to help and prodding myself onwards that I don’t need the rest of the world to bring me out into the light. See, it should be a feat if I do this same thing once a year, but if every month, then I don’t know how long I’m gonna survive the ride. Do you know?
