I just saw an anonymous post on a site I'm on, and I have to get a few things off my chest.
There was someone describing the exact situation I was in 5 years ago, saying, "It's too late for me," and it honestly broke my heart.
I have no way to contact them, I have no way to tell them it's not too late. That I was just there, with the same struggles and that I made it out again. That it's not too late, just because you went through trauma and mental illnesses at a specific age, started self harming when you were young or did it for some number of years.
It's just numbers and they don't define the rest of your life. Your mental struggles don't define you or your future.
It's not too late to get better.
I know this is very short and not what I usually post, but it had to be said. Thanks for reading and please don't give up your fight.
You can do it.
