The Miserably Macabre Tales of Luna Samuels
A -sometimes- uplifting story about growing up and overcoming life's challenges. Laugh, cry and smile with our cynical author as she tries to traverse what comes after high school while battling her inner demons, her sexuality and conquering the ever-terrifying world of adulting. "My name is Faith Elizabeth Samuels. Well, it used to be, before I left my fundamentalist helicopter parents and started going by Luna... My counselor tells me writing will help me to 'heal'. Somehow, writing my feelings of depression, anxiety, self harm and suicidal thoughts will negate a lifetime of 'bad feelings' about my self image, mental health and general well-being. Sounds legit. So, fair reader, does my little tale of woe intrigue you? If so, come join my merry band of misfits on this roller coaster of life." *There are no perfect people in this story; no villains, no perfect protagonists and no fairytale romance. There is, however, realistic examples of neurodivergence, discovering yourself, LGBTQIA characters and nuanced depictions of mental health problems, self harm, religious and generational trauma.* Rated Mature (17+) For themes of self-harm, depression, anxiety and some sexuality.Complete

TW: Eating disorder, Self-harm, ocd This story contains lot of menthal health stuff so please don't read if you're not comfortable with those topics. Nick's off to university and Charlie can't help but still worries. What if Nick finds someone better? What if our relationship isn't strong enough to do this long-distance-thing? On top of that, Tori is now going to university in Scotland and he can't even get a hug from her. Charlie starts distancing from his friends. But he'd never tell Nick that he gets bad again.
