Vulnerability

We all have it. Some of hide it with an attitude, some of us just hide. I'm a hider myself. The more vulnerable I feel, the more I seclude myself.
Sometimes we all just really want to yell out loud: I'M REALLY LONELY! MY HEART IS BROKEN! I'M JUST SO SAD ALL THE TIME! I'M FRUSTRATED AND ANGRY! WHY CAN'T I JUST BE NORMAL?!
But the thing to know, I guess, is that you are normal. You're just a human being with a lot of complex feelings, just like everyone else. You may feel like a nobody or really lonely or sad or whatever...but I bet that there is someone else out there who loves you. And maybe even someone who wishes that they were like you.
We are all vulnerable humans. We are not always strong. Even when we feel at our worst, it is in our nature to pretend we are strong. Maybe the more strong we seem, the less strong we actually feel.

wouldn't it be better to just take your shield down and show your true self? you might think that is impossible but i have done it and it doesn't isolate myself from others other people connect with what i go through and sympathize it's scary but a whole lot better than building a giant wall

What does that mean?
To 'hide' your feelings?
Does that mean that you just don't let anyone know how you are feeling and you just keep everything to yourself?
Or does it mean that you don't know what you feel, so you don't acknowledge it within yourself?
If you don't acknowledge your serious feelings like love, grief, pain, loneliness, frustration, are they even real? Because if they are YOUR feelings, and you don't really feel them, it kind of cancels itself out?
That doesn't seem right.

I guess there is also a fear that if that vulnerability is exposed, people will think less of you. Or me. Defintely me.
They will judge.
They will talk amongst themselves.
They will forget me.

Feel vulnerable? Of what?
If somebody wants to have a stab at you, by all means let them go right the fuck ahead. Relish in its delight, progressively build up the inner demon, and then surprise em with a role switch.

there are certain people that you can open up to and there are people that don't need to know how your feeling but you will have to figure that out

But if you just keep saying, FUCK THOSE PEOPLE, I DON'T CARE WHAT ANYONE THINKS, then one day you just find yourself all on your own and there is no one left but you.
Humans need other humans. If you want to punish a human being, you put him in a cell away from all the other humans and he suffers.
We all need someone.

Naaaa. I did a long time ago, but he hurt me so bad I'm all damaged and unsure of myself. Now my body is failing me....and I'm vulnerable.
So I hide.
But it's lonely hiding. So I'm just trying to work it out.

Thank you so much Freak. That really means so much to me right now...
It's just so hard to say, "I'm hurting and I need love from the people who I love!" And it's not like I don't have love, because I do. Something is wrong tho. Maybe it's lacking of self-love.
I am human. I am vulnerable.
