I write as a way to forget things.
I write to block people out.
I write to move on.
Writing about my problems helps me.
Writing about problems I don't have helps too.
I write fictional stories hoping maybe I can be that character, or maybe to show myself how different I am from them.
To show myself how much better I have it.
Sometimes they're beautiful stories about love and happiness and sometimes it's about the reality life is.
How miserable some people are.
I use people as symbols of mental illness or actual problems that get shown on the news, because who wants to report about depression? Or anxiety?
Real problems are left untouched, because everyone gets through it right?
Wrong.
Everyone deals with things differently, that's why I write.
To show you you aren't alone.
That there are people out there feeling the same way you do.
You aren't alone friend, we can get through this together.
