"You taught me the courage of stars before you left
How light carries on endlessly, even after death
With shortness of breath, you explained the infinite
How rare and beautiful it is to even exist"
-Saturn, Sleeping At Last
You have to be able to live your life, and feel your feelings, and think your thoughts, and be yourself, and fight your battles, and cope with your demons, and confront the skeletons in your closet, and breath your air, and smile your smile, and take care of yourself, and do whatever the fuck you have to do to get by as healthily as you can without dragging someone else down with you.
Be careful.
Because if you're too stubborn to take help even if you ask for it people are going to get frustrated, people are going to understand you. I'm not saying we all go through the same thing, but people understand what it's like to feel it too. And when you talk to someone about it... you need to be willing to accept advice. If not. Then you're never going to change.
The first step to getting help is admitting you need it. And accepting what's offered to you.
Don't let it ruin what you have. Learn to live with it. And learn to smile through it. And one day, even if it's years away, everything will start getting better. You can't expect everything to be good at all times. But one day you're life is going to look up, and you'll look back at all you went through and think
"Jesus christ. If I made it through that. I can make it through anything"
If you made it through suicidal thoughts and actions you're strong enough to get through life. If you made it through being anxious over every little thing, you're going to continue doing that. One day... everything will seem worth it.
You'll just have a few more battle wounds.
More experiences.
And more strength. And enough strength to help others who are like you. Because you're not alone.
