recovery can be difficult and can take a lot longer than you expected. don’t be hard on yourself for getting burnt out. have compassion even when it feels like your not recovering “fast enough” or “correctly.” everyone is on their own path.
i also have a lot of problems to cope with. but i want to be of help for others-- most especially to the people who mean to me a lot-- offer advice whenever i can, and be their shoulder to cry on if needed regardless of these because i can relate to their feelings just as well as they can relate to mine.
i believe that the best way to respond to your haters is not to respond at all.
“Sometimes I hate you, sometimes I hate myself, but always I miss you.”

i'm gradually allowing myself to discontinue oversharing. i came to realise that being overly open to others equates to allowing them to view beyond the surface of yourself, which can be used against you or against the people you value about the most.
keeping myself busy to feel okay.
I hate this feeling I hate that after a long warm night, I could still feel blue the next morning I hate this feeling I hate that I oftentimes struggle to ignite the spark of living. I hate the feeling of emptiness When all I ever wanted is to embrace happiness I hate the feeling of being hopeless When all I ever wanted is to unleash myself and be free from darkness.
