It’s been six weeks now and I’m still not getting it.
It may be appropriate to say that I’m really allergic to the institution. I fell seriously sick just a month into it and I’ve never felt so sick before. I couldn’t stand properly, I had to be held up and down the stairs.
I had somewhat high expectations before I came in, and I think I overrated myself. I’m not that capable after all. Who ever said I was? Only me and myself. As usual, Jo has overestimated herself. She thinks she is ready and capable of anything and everything, only to find that she is not even anywhere close to the others in the institution.
And it doesn’t help when things are not going the way it should be in another area of my life. Shaken by a passer-by, I now have little belief in self-control. I thought I could stop myself from thinking and doing something that I should not be doing, but now I know that I am easily defeated. This may mean that the current situation is something I should let go of, or something that should not be there in the first place. I can’t decide and this is bad.
