How do I cope?

Daily writing prompt
What strategies do you use to cope with negative feelings?

Negative feelings are all that I’ve known all of my life.

I honestly don’t think that I’ve ever been free from these negative feelings.

My father was an extremely negative experience in my life.

My grandmother was an extremely negative experience in my life.

My stepmother was a negative experience in my life.

My mother’s absence was a negative experience in my life.

My childhood growing up in a dysfunctional military family living on military bases was a negative experience.

My life while I was under the care of military social worker Captain Terry Totzke was a very negative experience.

Negativity is all that I have ever experienced in my life.

It’s not the feelings of negativity that I have to deal with.

It’s the feelings of normalcy or even the feelings of happiness.

I dread the feelings of normalcy and happiness due to the fact that I know that there will be a spectacular crash into the world of negativity.

I started out life as a military dependant. Got to see the country from one side to the other, at a cost. Tattoos and peircings are a hobby of mine. I'm a 4th Class Power Engineer. And I love filing ATIP requests with the Federal Government.
