You Are So Important, Please Remember That

I am a pretty understanding of being a sad bitch. I am diagnosed with clinical depression and I take antidepressants and I do the talk therapy, and it sometimes helps. But sometimes it doesn't. The problem with fighting with your own mind is that it is incredibly difficult to try and cope with day to day. I know what it feels like to be alone and want to go away permanently.

But I argue, what if we stay? I know that the pain can be unbearable, but please know there is somebody who maybe you never met right here on this small part of the world who cares about you and thinks that you are valuable. I understand where you are at but there is so much to live for.

It breaks my heart to think about the fact that anyone would ever think they don't matter at all, because how would the world have your special spark if you aren't here? It wouldn't. You matter you are so important. Every moment you are here is a beautiful, perfect moment. I don't know if you need to hear this or not but I am so glad that you have struggled through every moment and that you are still here. It means something.

So, keep trying if not for me for yourself. Or your mom, or if you don't talk to your mother maybe your third cousin that you have a weird relationship where you only exchange memes. Stay alive for that next moment because I promise it is worth it, you are meaningful in this life or you wouldn't exist.

Recently, it has just been really hard to accept that people can feel so low and leave everyone behind. I wish I could help the people suffering consistently, it is just... really hard to see so many young lives lost to their own battle.

Please stick around, 'cause you and I can change the world but I need you here to do it.

On a level of 1-10 with 1 being chill and 10 being stressed the flip out, you could say I'm a 9. Worrying about the future, grades, GPA, work, assignments, and a lack of sleep and food will do it to ya.
