We watched “Things Behind the Sun” today in my film class.
I feel physically sick.
The movie was incredibly moving, but oh my God. I feel so ill and so weak. I was trembling for a good 15 minutes after the ending and I still feel sick to my stomach thirty minutes after class.
To make matters worse, I started ~crying in class during the film. Thank God the lights were out, otherwise it would have been humiliating.
A film like that would affect me anyway; but add PMS and my classic anxious reaction to stress, and I thought I was going to vomit when I walked out.
I haven’t been able to eat all day. All I’ve had since this morning is a bubble tea. I can’t eat when I’m anxious and when I don’t eat, that makes me more anxious and then it’s just a constant spiral. I just want to curl up in bed and sleep for the rest of the day. I have no energy right now, there’s a funny taste in my mouth and my left eye is almost entirely bloodshot.
UGH. Four more days of this hell.
