Have you ever not been able to fall asleep because someone is purposely leaving the light on although they know you can't sleep with it that way? 
  
Have you ever not been able to stand up for yourself because there is someone who is holding you back and would tear you down if you would dare to say one word?



Adeline is one of the people who has never been able to do either and many else. 

Ever since she was little she's never been completely on her own without someone watching over everything she does, critizing everything she does. 

Now that she is at the age of 16 and in the middle of high school, she is going crazy. Having to share her mind and body with voices who terrorize her is part of her daily life.

She feels the need to end things so she can finally be alone, once for all. 

Then things change. 

But will those changes be enough to make her change her mind?

"I see the world and it seems like I see it so differently than most other people. It makes me really angry most of the time. Especially since no one ever listens to me or what I've got to say. I try to express myself in so many different ways and no one sees it. When I sing a song people will only care about how the music sounds or how much I swore. If I paint, people will see the picture but not the meaning. It seems so obvious to me but everyone just seems to... close their eyes. Or at least shut off their brain. As if I see things they don't. But when they don't listen, how can I communicate that to them? It's so frustrating." Allie is a high school student and has big plans to make the world a better place. But her own head is pitting against her, throwing rocks in her path on a daily basis. Everything seems to be great for a while but what happens when her world suddenly comes crashing down around her? Can she ever recover? A coming-of-age story that deals with mental ilnesses, grief, first loves and family, briefly taps into the subject of religion and will likely enrapture you. Trigger warning: mental illnesses, self harm, death, dealing with grief, mentions of guns and gun control, mentions of cults, mentions of homophobia, dissociation. Names of bands, band members and song titles have been changed but at this point I want to credit mainly Palaye Royale, the band 'Homesick Soldiers' that is mentioned throughout is heavily based off them, but I'm sure if you're familiar with them you would have been able to tell that :)

Too Afraid To Hope

30 parts Complete

I stare at the girl in the mirror, feeling the horrible scratchy material of the skinny jeans, harsh against my skin. I hate skinny jeans. But I want to fit in. I want to be one of those pretty, confident skinny girls. I want to look at the mirror and acknowledge that I am beautiful and appealing to boys. I'm not just a fat lump. I want to feel love like in the love stories. I want to know that someone out there is right for me. That someone loves me. I know that my Mom and my big brother love me. But that's all. I'm not even one of those half-decent girls that have one best friend: I am no one. **** This is the story of thirteen year old, Adeline, who is mercilessly made fun of because of her size. This is the story of how she proved those girls wrong. This proves that if you're not happy either, YOU CAN CHANGE!
