Mental health is nothing to joke about.

It is a disease affecting your body or brain. There are so many different things that can happen to someone to develop these issues. Rape, losing a loved one, bullying, and so much more can affect someone to affect them to the point of developing these issues.

People think that these issues happen fast, but they develop until it really hits you.

People can get anxiety, PTSD, depression, and so much more throughout their lives and never really know why it happened to them.

These diseases can affect you in so many ways.

You can become distant with family, significant others, and even friends. You feel like there’s nothing you can do to fix it or fix your life to make it better. No matter what you do, you aren’t making the people most important to you happy, or that nothing you do is good enough to please them. You feel like nobody wants you or would ever want you. It’s hard to live with these diseases.

I just want to let the people struggling with these mental health issues to know that it does get better.

It may take months or years but it will eventually get better and you will become happy again and feel like yourself. You need to get yourself the help you need, I know it’s hard to get help but you will be thankful that you did one day. Reach out to a loved one and talk to them about your struggles and seek the help you deserve. These issues take a toll on the body and can cause you to become extremely unhealthy. Getting help will help yourself upkeep your body and mind.

There is no shame in getting the help you need in order to help yourself.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
