Back in late January/early February I was starting to find it really hard to cope with the mockery directed at me (Which for some reason my mind seemed to project as pretty much everyone hates me, when in fact at this point it's pretty much just the smug gits who like to think they're cool by messing with other people's heads), and a lot of remarks towards me, doubts about the state of my body (For some reason I thought I was grossly overweight.

) and general stress caused me to have a breakdown. It wasn't pretty during that one month - I constantly had my head down, not making eye contact with anyone, and my voice sounded kind of dead. No more kind, caring and friendly personality, no more bubbly and funny guy, instead all that was replaced with emptiness. During that period I also seemed to have some strange fondness for drawing pentagrams onto my hands, and writing kind of distressing messages onto my arms and onto pieces of paper. I happen to have a best friend who self harms, and she was desperately trying to stop me from doing all of it because she knew that eventually that pen would be replaced with a knife. The school found out after I had a second breakdown and I was put on a course for counseling... Which I then got about a month later.

By which point all of the confused feelings and depression had faded. I'm still not quite sure what got into me, I'm usually the one to express myself and my feelings to everyone else (In order to clearly show that I'm not a sheep), and always very nice and willing to make new friends, but that month my behaviour turned was the complete opposite.
...I always feel weird revealing to people parts of my life, but I think it's probably just the Aspergers thing coming back, only recently have I actually felt comfortable talking to other people without hiding behind the nearest chair.
