i read this post about someone simply accepting their depression is not going to go away & instead of resenting themselves for never getting rid of it or trying to find so much energy to banish the sadness away or to be fully "healed" from it, they just focus on adding more happy things in their plate.
and that is something i can resonate with.

actually, to have the audacity to live, to take up space, is the scariest and most rewarding gift you can give yourself.

Family, teachers, friends of my parents, parents of my friends, doctors. ..
I was not secretive about any of what I was going through. I'd been told that if anyone ever hurt me to tell an adult and I did that every single time. I would find an adult I thought could be safe, I'd tell them my experience and I'd wait for it to get better. It never did.
