It’s okay to start over.

This is for the people who lost opportunities, friends, family, possessions, homes and years because of mental illness. There is still so much that you can have or regain. This isn't the end for you. Better things are ahead. It's still possible for you to be happy and feel whole. Your dreams are still within reach. You aren't broken... you're growing... and I hope someday you'll be satisfied that things didn't pan out ideally for you.

Lol one thing about female socialization I find crazy is like your entire childhood and adolescence you'll be discouraged from being an active agent in your own life and punished for stepping a toe out of line and then when you're an adult you get your ear talked off about how passive, anxious and self-conscious you are and how annoying it is.
