My last book, "Torn Apart", was supposed to be the book that I made progress. Instead, I brought myself down even more. I made no progress. I don't regret any of the decisions I've made. I don't feel guilty for anything that effected me. I'm proud. I've come a long way and this isn't over. THIS is where I make more progress and realize things I never knew before. This is the book that counts, the one that really matters. In this book, I will try to put in a diary. Along with things you need to know. I hope you enjoy this book more and I hope some of you are still here for the ride.

do you know those days when you're at your breaking point?

This poem is about my struggles with mental health. The title "When the Pressure Lifts" holds deep meaning for me, it represents my journey of allowing myself not to be okay. Of learning to accept being broken. Being flawed. These words come from different moments in my life when everything felt overwhelming, confusing, or disjointed. This is a story about my still-developing healing journey. It may be ever-changing. It may be messy. I might have bad days and better ones. But even through the chaos, I asked for help. I took that first step. I wrote this because I hope someone. Someone who may be scared to show their broken, raw side to themselves or to others know that they deserve saving. They deserve help. They deserve love. Just know this: I see you. No matter how dark life feels right now, that is not who you are. You are worth so much. And you are worth fighting for.

Meet 18 year old, Ali Reed. She was smart, beautiful and very caring and loving. She lived within the dorms at John Hopkins University with her best friend, Alissa Val. However she didn't see herself as a beautiful young lady. All she saw was a 'disgusting fat pig'. She wanted to die. She wanted to leave. Just to fall asleep and never wake up again. Meet 20 year old, Manu Hart. He was handsome, smart, and pretty much known as a 'player'. Everyone adored him. Girls would fall head over heels for him and let's just say the boys would be jealous but would still show respect to him. He was perfect and living the life he has always wanted. And he still wanted more and more. His life was drama free and he had no one to worry about expect for himself and ones he cared about. He had everything he wanted. Until one day, they are both assigned to work together for a project. ⚠️WARNING: THIS STORY WILL HAVE ANOREXIC AND SELF HARMING PART IN IT!
