English Journal #1: I Know Something About...

I know something about feeling so low you can't feel anything at all. I sort of kinda talked about it in my "English B" piece, but I didn't really explain it. Imagine that everyday you wake up and all day you have comments and insults and just real ignorant things thrown at you from various people. The numbness starts in your stomach and spreads, to your arms, chest, hands, face. Your eyes start to sting and it takes everything you have not to cry. All day, every day, this. You go home and it doesn't get any better. So you go to your room and have a complete break down. No food, no homework, no anything. You fall asleep and wake up and do it all over again. Your parents start to notice things, but then maybe they don't, and them finding out is the scariest thing ever.
