a lot of people i know, both online and irl, have been really struggling lately, so here are a few messages that i find really helpful that may help you as well. please remember that you are so so loved and deserve to be happy. i am here if you need or want to talk. 
i wear this one on a bracelet every day.
“you can’t always be strong, but you can always be brave.” - johnny
(i am not sure if he Said said this, but he put it on his cheer bracelet and it is something i remind myself of every time i look at my wrist)

another one that i like to repeat to myself on bad days is one that jaehyun has on his cheer bracelet:
“your past is not your future.”
i also like to add to this one from jaehyun’s station, and remind myself, “[you’ll] be alright, please try again.”
“your past is not your future.”

a short poem that i like to read when i am having especially bad days and need a little hope.
another small poem that i like to read on difficult days. even if all you could do was get up today, i am so so proud of you. you are so strong.
i like reading this one when i am having a day where i do not feel like myself.
this one is a reminder i need sometimes: do not ever apologize for taking up space. you deserve to be happy, to be supported, to be loved. please do not forget that.
and finally, some reminders that it is okay to not be okay, too.
and here is a thread of breathing animations i like to use when my anxiety is getting the best of me.

this has been in my drafts for awhile and i never could decide on a “right time” to post it — and then i realized that there was not a “right time,” so here it is. i can just hope that it may help someone, even for a second. <3
(also i may continue adding to this every once in a while as i find things that help me and that i like.)
