I love you.

A Letter To My Best Friend

Let me start this by saying, I appreciate you more than you will ever know. You are the only person who knows me more than I know myself. I know things are hard now that I am in college and you are back home with your family, but I don't ever want to lose you because of distance. I wish I could go home more and see you and my second family, but I'm so busy with college, work, and my other activities on campus.

I think about you every day. I want to text you when every little inconvenient thing happens, but I don't want to be a bother. I know that's what you're here for, but I just worry that it's a little too much sometimes.

Distance sucks, but I appreciate you being there. I know I could call you at any time of the day and you would answer. You listen to me rant when people hurt me, whether it be a friend or a boy. Even when I go back to someone who hurts me, you're there. OF COURSE, you tell me I'm stupid, but you never leave my side and you are always there to catch me when I fall.

When I am doubting my worth, you send me a book of how much I mean to you. I appreciate you always showing me that I am worth way more than I think and I wish I could express to you your worth.

I am beyond proud of you for your accomplishments. You graduated high school, you overcame all of the drama that has been thrown in your way and you are such a great mother to my niece.

I can not wait to see how far you go in life.

Thank you for always sticking by my side and I promise to always stick by yours and to be here for you when you need me.

*wipes tears off of face*

Love,

Your Best friend

The Battle Between College And My Mental Health

College isn't easy, and I'm afraid I'm not going to make it at the rate my mental health is going.

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?
