Summary :

When the whole world comes crashing down on you and you realize that none of the people or things you love bring you fulfillment or stability anymore, what is a girl meant to do? Is the breakdown supposed to be pretty? Graceful, maybe? Is the girl supposed to say “I need help, I feel like I am on the edge of a breakdown, please coddle me”? Is the girl supposed to post inspiring things on the internet about overcoming her hardships and becoming a better person after a period of healing? There was no better person buried inside of her.
