now, i haven't had an episode in a long time. in atleast a month actually. i'm doing better. i know that it will probably go back to being bad soon but this time i know ways to get out of it. i feel happy again, for the first time since i was 7. i have a wonderful partner who i fall in love with every day and bands i can lean on when things get bad. to anyone reading this going through a difficult time right now, please know it gets better. one day you'll wake up next to your significant other, maybe a dog or cat at the edge of your bed and you'll breathe easier. you'll be okay one day. pete wentz did it, and so can you. so can i. we all can.
