I'm not going to pretend I know everything about you (YOU YOU EVERYTHING THAT YOU DO DO DO okay sorry pardon me this is serious business). I barely know you, and you might not even know my name, but I know your life isn't easy. I know that much, even if I don't know all the reasons why.

You probably don't want my pity. I'm not offering it. I'm not writing this because I pity you or want to tease you or even just call attention to you. You don't want attention, do you? You aren't around to give people something to talk about. Can't blame you there. I honestly don't know why I'm writing to you, specifically. Maybe it's just what the letter says: you are going through the hardest times.

I don't know exactly what your problems are: family life or depression or poverty or self-harm or addiction or abuse or bullying or eating disorders or all of these things or none of these things. But please get help. I know you need help but I don't know you and it's not my business and how could I help you anyway but I just know that YOU NEED HELP. Please. It hurts that by just walking by you, by virtually a stranger, I can tell. I feel helpless, and I'm trapped on the outside.

Whatever this is you're going through, I really, truly believe you can get out of this. Get help, have faith, and you will pull through. At least try. You are worth at least trying.

Genuinely,
