Subject: Never before in my life. . .

. . . have I been as terrified as I was last night. I don't know why or even how it started, but it has changed quite a few things. You see, my parents were worried about me. . . so worried, in fact, that they threatened to take me to the hospital. Now, I'm sure you can figure out they meant for the mentally ill. I swear to God I'm not that insane! I'm actually, much to my dismay, quite normal. Still, I am their first teenager and, well. . . maybe you understand my situation. The only way I got out of it was by doing two things. I betrayed a friend, my best friend in fact, and told my deepest, darkest secret. Now, I tell you this because if my fear was strong enough to make me do those things. If my fear was strong enough to do that, it is strong enough to make me give up one of the great 'loves' of my life. My parents say I spend too much time on the computer, as I'm sure many of you have heard. They say I use it to escape. . . well no duh! The thing is, if I don't cut down, or quit completely. . . I just don't want to go to a hospital! I really don't! It had me in tears and so uptight. I know I've done nothing for Life, but Life has done something for me. My writing skills have greatly improved, and it was, as I mentioned before, my major escape. So, maybe I'll see ya'll around, maybe not. I have no real way of knowing. Thanks to everyone. . .
