The State of the Union Address

I’M the UNION. I often have nights where giving up crosses my mind and then I have nights like tonight when everything goes my way. I get back at my tormentors, I stick up for myself, I have a little power; a little control.
The trick is to have these feelings more. More of a balance.
Instead having NO confidence the majority of the time, I need a LITTLE confidence, ALL of the time. I’m sure everybody understands.

I’ve always been aversive to confidence. Overly confident people annoy me. Its probably why I have this illness.

Me too. But I need a LITTLE confidence. Most people will roll right over you unless you show at least a token amount of fighting back. It’s not like there’s fistfights and screaming matches wherever I go. Lol. But there is a LITTLE subtle or sometimes outright intimidation that goes on that will be stopped if I stand tall and look someone in the eye. Before I got sick, It came naturally do me and I didn’t realize that I was doing it. But now it still works but it takes practice.

Yeah you gotta be able to at least stand your ground and evaluate things. Dont be pushed around. You dont want to mess with the wrong people though.

Its amazing how much easier it is when you cut drugs out. No need to worry about money transactions or shady people at all. You also dont have to help people find weed. That was always a pain.

Yeah, true words.
