Sane's life had been a constant battle with her own mind. Every day, she woke up with a heavy heart, unsure of how to face the world. She wished she could just curl up in bed and forget about everything. But that was not an option. Her life had to go on, whether she was ready or not.

She had two best friends, who were always there to support her, but lately, even they seemed distant. Sane couldn't shake off the feeling that she was a burden on them, that they were just putting up with her for old times' sake. They had been a constant in her life, but now she felt like they were slipping away.

The only escape she had was her writing, watching anime and listening to K-pop. She immersed herself in these worlds, living vicariously through the characters. They were her friends, her confidantes, her solace.

But the reality of her life was far from rosy. She suffered from severe executive dysfunction and had lost interest in her studies. Her grades were slipping, and she knew it was a matter of time before she failed completely. Her family just seemed to hate her even more because of it. Sane knows that if she was to explain why this had happened then they would just tell her that it's just an excuse for her to be lazy so she said nothing which left Sane to fend for herself.

It was during one of her darkest moments that one of her best friends started distancing herself from her and she wondered why but never found the courage to ask. Sane felt like her world had come crashing down. She didn't know how to cope with this new development. She felt like she was losing everyone she cared about.

Days turned into weeks, and Sane's world became quieter. She spent more time alone, lost in her thoughts. She didn't know what to do or where to turn. The darkness seemed to be closing in on her.

But then, something shifted. Sane started to write her own story - a story about a young girl who had to face her demons alone. And as she wrote, she found that her own pain started to lift slightly. The words flowed out of her, giving her a sense of purpose and direction.

In the end, Sane found that she had the strength to face her demons head-on. She knew that the road ahead would be tough, but she also knew that she was alone so asking for help would be fruitless and doing it by herself would be more convenient because nobody understands her. Some people cared about her. She just had to wait until they found her instead of searching for them. The future was uncertain, but Sane knew that she had the power to shape it, one word at a time.
