mom:" daija,  calm down"

me:" I hate my life " I said crying

mom :" dont say that "

me:"its true my life sucks "

mom:" daija I think you need a therapist"  " I mean youve gone through a lot and the rest of them wouldnt know how it feels because they're independent now"

.

she was right I have gone throughh a lot . parents divorced,  step family,  cousin died which was the worst thing, brothers and sisters not at home, cousin not talking anymore, breakibg apart from one of my best friends, but I still have four things that will always stay with me, basketball, basketball family,  family, and august. I do need help. 

mom:" are you willing to accept help?"

me :" yes" I said crying
