Friend: are you okay?
Thoughts: no I'm not. I'm definitely not okay. I'm depressed. And I have anxiety. My biggest fear is rejection and not being good enough. I want to tell someone. Maybe I'll tell you. I just need a hug, someone to tell me it'll be okay. I want to tell you. I want to tell you everything, all my problems and worries. But what if when I tell you, you reject me?
Me: nah I'm fine. I'm just tired, I had a late night last night. Thanks though.
