trigger warnings - anxiety, panic attacks, self-harm, blood, and suicide. 

He drops it so many times.

The metal slips from his hands and clatters to the floor and escapes his slick fingers every time he tries to grab it. He pokes his nail underneath, inserts it between the bathroom tile and the small rectangle, and manages to grip back onto it. He feels the skin break, feels the pads of his fingers start to sink against the hard material enclosed in his palm, bites down on his lip and rips against the scab and feels the pain, all at once, everywhere.

What the fuck just happened what the fuck is going on how did this happen how did he end up here how did he lose everything in one night hot cold hot wet everything is blurry he can't see he can't breathe it feels so tight it's getting tighter he's gonna die why the fuck is this happening to him why is this his life what is he going to do he can't do this he can't do any of it it's all wrongwrongwrong nonono.

He lifts his head and slams it against the bathroom tile, once, twice, again and again until his vision starts to go spotty. Everything's fading at the edges. They're fuzzy and black, the edges curling up into themselves, spitting ink through the rest of the picture. He can't see nothing is clear everything is blurry it's all shapes it's moving he's moving he wants to get off he feels sick it's coming he can't move nonono.

It comes. It coats the front of his shirt, sticky and warm. He can't see he can't move it's spinning everything is spinning get me off please I want it to stop it hurts make it stop I can't do this anymore I can't it's too much stopstopstop.

He vomits again. And again. Over and over until he's gagging on stomach acid, burning the back of his throat. It stings it hurts he can't breathe why isn't this stopping why won't it stop why can't he breathe why is he always like this it hurts it hurts it hurts.

Why is he always like this why can't be calm down why can't he be a normal human being they're gonna kill him everyone's gonna kill him they're not gonna stop it won't stop he'll get stopped in the streets and screamed at by managements hate accounts death threats go kill yourself why do people even look up to you he doesn't know he doesn't know he doesn't know.
