I don’t know who needs to hear this but-

I’m sorry you’re struggling. I’m sorry you feel helpless. I’m sorry you feel like this & you’re not wrong for feeling this way.

But I do want you to know that you will not feel this way forever.

You will survive this.
You will be okay.

During times like these, you may feel so deeply & so down.

You convince yourself that no one out there understands. You truly believe that the darkness will consume you.

You may resent people who say to be positive & to look on the bright side. These words may frustrate you.

I wish there was one pill, one therapist, one method that could flip that switch in your head. The switch that turns off the voice telling you all these terrible things.

If this is where you are, make this your goal:

Get through today. As hard as it seems, survive today.

And when you get through today, get through tomorrow...

And the next.

And the next.

I can’t promise that each day will be great or even okay. Some will really suck.

But know that as the process.

It is not a failure.
Not all is lost.
