Hey guys,

I told myself I wouldn't post any chapters in this book that weren't one shots, but I'm breaking that just for this because I know a lot of people read this book and yeah.

There's been a few things happening recently that I wanted to address, first of all that people have been commenting on Call My Name asking me if I'm okay because of the content I'm writing because it's so dark. And the honest answer is no, I'm not okay. I'm having a really hard time at the moment. But it's okay to not be okay.

I've struggled with depression for years, anxiety for much longer, SH for longer than I'd care to admit, and I'm involved in a really traumatic court case at the moment that's been going on for so long now. I've been clean for years, but a few hours ago life tipped me over the edge and I relapsed. Before you ask, yes I'm okay, it was only minor, and I'm taking care of it. I'm okay. 

And there's a reason I'm telling you this. Not for sympathy, not for attention, but to let you know that it's normal for people to struggle. I know sometimes things feel bad, and that's okay. Bad days happen, bad things happen, and you're allowed to cry, scream, and breakdown about it. 

It's 3.30 in the morning as I'm writing this, so tomorrow's version of me might take this chapter down later. We'll see. But take the time to talk to each other in the comments, check in on each other, realize that you are not and will never be alone. I might seem like a big happy wattpad writer but that's because you see only what I want you to see. Now I'm showing you what's real. I struggle. I relapse. I might need help. And that's okay.

I know it's a lot for me to put this out, but you guys on my account have become my home and I can never express how much I love you. You guys are my whole world, and I love you so so much. Alway remember I love you, and I am always here to talk. I'm not just shiningjustforyou13, I'm Lauren, and I'm just another person like you guys.

Love you guys <3
