post secret

I can’t remember who told me about PostSecret but it’s become one of my favorite blogs. Each entry consists of a postcard that someone sent the curator to post. They are beautiful postcards with intriguing confessions.

    My favorite are :
    Your last mortal thought will be “why did I take so many days, just like today – for granted”

    and

    I believe I will accomplish something truly great in this lifetime. I am going to be 53 tomorrow.

    Postsecret is a really moving blog. Most heartbreaking to me was the postcard that said “I miss feeling close to God,” accompanied by a tiny drawing at the bottom left side. Regardless of whatever your personal feelings are about God, you could feel the loneliness of the sender. It made me cry.

    I tried to send mine in but I ended up riping it to shreds…

    it was “I tried to commit suicide and part of me wants to keep trying”

    I felt bad cos I didn’t want people to recognize my style of drawing…

    I confess, I can’t be bothered to even send my secret.

    But if I did:

    I’d be killing myself with drugs and alcohol right now, if I wasn’t so concerned about my looks.

    I have so many secrets I want to send into Post Secret. But I can’t work up the courage to do it. I think it would make my secrets more valid. I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to handle actually putting them down on paper, saying them, or acting them out.

    see over the summer i was really depressed but no one knew because i don’t show my feelings, i could look totally happy but inside i’m ripping to shreds. it’s almost like i’m living a lie.

  15. LostHope

    I keep telling myself and you it will be alright, but on the inside i know it will all fall apart.

    I have been suisidal for 2 years now. I have had beautiful dreams and fantacy’s about dying, the pain that would be lifted off my shoulders.
    I regret telling my best friend about my condition beacouse she made me feel guilty about it.
    The only thing holding me back from killing myself is feeling selfish while doing it.
    Im 13 years old, and behind my frequent smiles of “happyness”..there lay a deadly deppression.

    I cheated on my boyfriend with 4 men. My friends ratted me out and he found out. I told him everyone else was lying. He believed me. Since then, we moved in together and he bought me a dog. Thing is, I think I might do it again.

    I blame my god for everything wrong in my life because he started it by taking my dad… now I just wish I could take everything I’ve done wrong back.

  28. Jessica

    Anytime I am ever away from my boyfriend I fall back into depression, the depression that he got me out of, the depression he has no idea about. I want to tell him, I know he would understand but I don’t want it to seem like I need to be around him all of the time. I’m afraid of looking needy.

  30. whitney

    two of my best friends left me another one drooped me and another one is losing all interest in me. I think there’s something wrong with me

  34. courtney

    People don’t like me because my breath smells. I’m afraid I’ll be alone forever because of it.

  35. Princess

    I’m moving home from college to be with a boy who forgot about me a year and a half ago when we broke up.

    I think about him everyday.

  37. Anon

    I have a boyfriend, but I keep thinking about one of my best friends.
    She’d be scared of me if she found out.

  38. mia

    every night i dream of different ways he could break my heart so i could finally be through with him, truth is, he breaks my heart every second of everyday and im afraid ill never stop loving him.

  39. Monster

    She hurt me SO much when she started dating my ex… not because friends should do that, but because I knew how PERFECT they were for eachother.

    4 out of 5 things I can’t stand in a person I also hate about myself.

    I’m afraid to get involved in a new relationship because I’ve been hurt by everyone I’ve ever known.
    I’m afraid to get into a new relationship because I’ve hurt everyone I’ve ever known.
    I’m afraid to get into a new relationship because I’m so used to being used just for sex that I know I wont be able to trust him completely or let myself open up and be HONEST for once.

    They aren’t lying when they say that cutting is addictive.

    I’m not afraid of death because I’m so afraid of life.

    I make jokes about 9/11

    I lost my virginity at 14 to a guy who thought I was mature enough to handle it. Now I’m 17 and sex is something I use to keep the boys interested in me.

    I got my dads x girlfriend drunk and abused her. Then I said she had done it to me when my brother cought us. Now my dads got another girlfriend and I want to do the same to her, but she dont drink.

  43. lovea

    I had an affair with a married man. He has three kids. I was going to kill myself after the affair ended. However, my husband was supportive through my whole depression. To this day, I have never told him why I was depressed. Something inside of me suspects that he knew about the other man. But he loves me enough not to bring it up.

    Despite my husband’s love and devotion…I would cheat on him tomorrow if I got the chance. I think he knows that too.

  45. Claire

    i am the “perfect popular girl in school” but people dont see the hurt inside..
    i’ve been sexually assulted. My dad abuses me. My first boyfriend hit me constantly. ive had an eating dissorder for two and a half years. i drink my pain away, constantly. ive been a cutter since last year. people dont see the imperfections that i have, and i hate it.
    dont judge people by their looks..

    I am madly, disablingly in love with my best friend. I know I am not good enough for him, I spend each moment trying to become what he deserves.

  47. Toni

    Secrets hmmmmm

    I do wish i had never got pregnant! Maybe I SHOULDNT have gotten married! I have cheated on my husband while he was away supporting the family! I am still cheating on him, with his best friend who is getting married to his sister! My sister in-law is pregnant and i dnt think she should keep the baby! I know My bestfriend lies to me about everything and I play along!I think they only want me for the things I do for them not who I am. My husband beats me! i think I deserve it! i dont want to go with him!

    I am in love with one of my good friends. He knows everything about me and that’s why he’ll never love me back. I want to tell him but it will kill me and our friendship when he turns me down. He’s 17… I’m 14…. It wouldn’t ever work out. But I’ll always want him. And I secretly wish he’ll read this and find out it’s me. 20 years from now if i’m married i’ll wish that my husband is him. I sit alone because i don’t get along with other people but also because i know he’ll come over and talk to me. I read books around him not only because i like to read but because i know he’ll come over and ask what i’m reading. Every hug i get from him makes me melt. And i’m disappointed when he doesn’t hug me. I’m nicer to him than to any body in my whole life. If it wasn’t for him i wouldn’t be a Christian and I’d have killed myself a few monthes ago. When he talks about how much he likes other girls and flirts with them around me, I pretend not to care but part of me hates it. The other part just wants him to be happy even if that means I’m not in the picture because it hurts me even more for him to be in pain because of a girl or because he thinks he’ll die alone. As i type my feelings of love for him I hope he’ll read it and love me back. -rebel_gurl5678@yahoo.com (email me with any advice)
