This year was the worst year I had ever experienced. I was still sad about Cassandra and Kameron, but I made two new friends: Toby and Brendan. I started dating Brendan and Toby was my best friend. Julie and I kept in touch but we didn't have classes together. You, however, started hanging out with Clarissa. This made me very depressed, not having you there beside me. I began self harming and thought of suicide almost daily. Of course, it wasn't only because we weren't close anymore. It was because Julie, Cassandra, Kameron, and you weren't as close to me. And things started to get stressful at home. Toby helped me through a lot of it. He was also self harming. I found out that you were too and it crushed me. We still hung out but it wasn't like it used to be. I ignored the feelings I had from the night in 6th grade, but I couldn't help but feel heart broken from the loss of you. Towards the end of the year I started dating Toby and things stayed the same. They almost got worse because I felt bad about breaking up with Brendan.
