This story is written in the perspective of a 19 year old girl struggling with many mental illnesses such as OCD, eating disorders, BPD, etc. She struggles with a lot of internal battles, learning to trust people, struggling with addiction, and trying to overcome her struggles and stay sober. She recently lost her best friend and is trying to navigate being a person again after the traumatic loss. She still struggles despite it happening over a year ago. Her mind is constantly full of noise and never settles down, she feels like a train wreck. Unsure how to cope besides the coping mechanisms she turns to that she has always found comforting, despite being horrible for her. 
Imagine a story that's sort of like a lost diary nobody is supposed to read. It is full of emotions, raw, and somewhat triggering. The first chapter has disclaimers and trigger warnings, and the second has a meet the character section with face claims and info about each character. The story truly starts at Part 3 where chapter 1 begins. 


"All I ever wanted was to belong. To feel normal, but instead I'll never find my people. I could have a normal life, but I fell into addiction. With drugs, as well as anorexia. I ruined myself just for an ounce of control over the disastrous, chaotic pile of bullshit my life has become. I recovered, but then lost everything again due to losing my best friend. I don't know if I'll make it out alive this time."

NOTE- Everything written on phone so far. All a rough draft, no editing yet.

Cold Water by adaline_meadows

[BWWM] I was only twelve years old when the world turned cold. The day my mom died in that car accident, I felt like someone had dumped a bucket of ice water over my heart. My dad, who had always been my hero, suddenly became a stranger, filled with rage and blame. He couldn't see that I was hurting, too; he only saw me as a reminder of his loss. The accusations cut deep. He said it was my fault for being there, for not doing something to save her. For being the reason she was in the car in the first place. In the years that followed, things only got worse. The abuse started gradually-a harsh word here, a shove there-but it escalated, leaving scars that I carried long after the physical pain faded. I was drowning in my own despair, struggling to keep my head above water while my father's anger raged like a storm around me. I only had a break from his anger when I started living with Aunt Dina-my mom's older sister. Well, that was because she found me nearly dead on my bed after I took a dozen pills. I was tired of living. I had hit rock bottom. The harsh whispers that followed me around and the stares at school. I pretended not to notice, like it didn't bother me. But it did. I was alone. Then came Athalia, a ray of sunshine cutting through my darkness. With her, I felt something I hadn't felt in years-happiness. She became my light through the darkness and my lifeline. ••••••••••• ● Warnings ⚠️ ~ Mention of suicide ~ Anxiety attacks ~ Rape attempt ~ Mention of self-harm ~ Depression

This is a Zombie Apocalypse AU. ______________________________________ Tara Carpenter loved Amber Freeman. Amber Freeman loved Tara Carpenter. They were childhood best friends, practically attached at the hip. Then, in late 2015, when they were 11, Amber went missing. Everyone looked practically everywhere they could think of, but Amber was never seen again. Her parents didn't seem to care, however. Four years later, in 2019, the apocalypse occurred around what would have been Amber's sophomore year of high school. She would have been 15, just like Tara and most of the others their age. It's now 2023, meaning it's been four years since the apocalypse started and almost a decade since Amber disappeared. The world isn't exactly "safe" anymore; it never truly was, anyway. There are still survivors here and there, but not many, as around a third of humanity has fallen (either killed or turned, usually both). The government, despite its best attempts to control what had happened, fell as well. It was long overdue. Amber is very much "alive". When she went "missing", it turned out her parents had sold her to a lab, and she was turned, in a way. Given that she seems mostly turned, she can easily appear to be completely gone, but she's not. She's still in there. However, it's hard to speak for her due to the infection in her veins, but she's for the most part okay. She wanders around now, often with hordes of fully turned zombies, traveling the devastated world. She has been almost everywhere, in terms of cities and locations. Eventually, she stumbles upon Woodsboro again and finds a few people she thought she'd never see again. And maybe, just maybe, they can help her become human again.
No One Sees. by KAubrie

Calla thought a new town meant a new start. But Pine Ridge has a way of turning hope into something cruel. Her mom's smiles are fake. Her stepdad's affection is unsettling. Behind closed doors, her home hides more than it shows. At school, the line between friend and enemy blurs fast, and as whispers turn to rumors, and kindness turns to inhumanity, Calla's grip on control begins to slip. Secrets surface. Lies spread. And the people around her? They watch, helpless-or indifferent. Raw. Real. Unforgiving. No One Sees is a dark coming-of-age story about trauma, girlhood, and the pain people look away from. ***TRIGGER WARNING*** This story contains themes and depictions of trauma, bullying, emotional abuse, sexual harassment, mental illness, and suicide.
