came across my camera roll from 2013-2018 and i just want to give young sana a hug for being so hard on herself. i can confidently say ive become the woman that i needed all those years

pictures of me in group photos with people i haven’t spoken to in years make me so sad, i wish i trusted myself to believe the amount of red flags i encountered all those years. nevertheless, so proud of how much ive grown since

is it weird that the eras in which i took the most photos of myself, “friends”, going out - was the darkest era of my life.

i might shamelessly continue this thread. i have so much to say about friendship, trauma, depression, insecurities, growth, resilience
