An Open Letter To My 'Best Friend'

When depression is your worst enemy and your best friend.

An Open Letter To My 'Best Friend'
Grace Kelly

I hate you so much, I really do. Your goal is to take away my happiness and for a while you were winning. You took away my smile, my laugh and my big bright blue eyes. You took away my ability to yell extra loud at a cheer game and even crack a smile to all my friends in the crowd. You made my room dark and my heart shatter, have you ever felt the physical pain in your chest? You made my love cave in and my door lock.

There is something you can't take away though. You will never take away sunrises and a lilac sky. I think that is why I love the sun so much, you can never take it away, it will still shine even when I can't. You can't take away baths and fresh sheets and phone calls from my mom. You will never stop my friends from laying with me when you make the world feel heavy, you can't take their love for me away. Even in that dark room you can't take away their light, you can't take away my sun.

I spent so much time trying to work around your schedule, when in reality you needed to work around mine. You are a really bad friend and only care about yourself, you do not care about what I have to do in a day. You do not care that I need to leave my room, you drag me into things I do not want to do and I am officially done. I need to learn how to live with you rather than pushing you away, because that is not working. Stop trying to steal my sunshine on a warm spring day. Do you not realize that a flower can still bloom even after winter passes?

You may have won a battle, but I am winning the war.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
