Saying that I'm just tired has been one of my go to responses for a long time. I always thought of it as just another lie that I've been using to hide what's really wrong. But now I realize that I'm not lying. For once in my life I'm telling the truth.
I'm tired.
I'm tired of being put down.
I'm tired of being judged for everything I do.
I'm tired of lying.
I'm tired of being lied to.
I'm tired of being insulted.

I'm tired of having to be careful.
I'm tired of wanting to hurt myself.
I'm tired of hating myself.
I'm tired of feeling stuck.

I'm tired of pretending.
I'm tired of so many things. But most of all, I'm just tired of being tired.
