thank you for this. your writing is so expressive and authentic.

you are real. you are valued. you are appreciated.

"i want to be alive just for the sake of being alive/ not so that i can tell people i am" is so powerful. its a thought i've had run through my mind countless times, and you've pinpointed it and put it into words so beautifully.

It’s so interesting to read this and feel that weight of relatability. I grew up in a household where the only valid emotion was anger so ultimately I became the cry baby and leading into adulthood I’m so private with my emotions that I come off as heartless and often at times I wonder if I am. Thanks for putting your thoughts out there into the universe because it can bring clarity to others as well :) very poetic and beautifully written

you aren't alone in feeling a lot of those ways.

just because someone else's pain may be more than yours, it doesn't make yours amount to any less. everyone is going through it but it's okay to admit that you are too and that ideal took me a long time to realize.

and for what it's worth, you could never amount to nothing. you're too grand of a person.

i'm happy that you are alive and that i am lucky enough to exist on this shitty planet at the same time as you.

take care of yourself because you're important to a lot of people, including me <3
