You know when you've been stuck in a depressive/apathetic episode for so long that you can't even remember what caused it?
You know when you can't tell your emotions apart and start questioning whether or not they're real?
You know when you fall back into unhealthy coping mechanisms even though you've been clean for so long?
You know when you don't know how to ask for help or open up to people because you've always been told that you're smart and mature enough to deal with things on your own?
You know when you rely on academic validation to build your self esteem but you can't achieve what you used to be able to because you've been feeling like shit for too long and someone you hate is getting amazing results in everything and is practically patting you on the shoulder saying "Oh well you can't be good at everything." while waving her perfect test results in front of your face.
You know when you can't talk to people about this so you posted it on a platform for your 71 followers (most of which are strangers) to read?
