whenever i think about the past my brain always kinda just tells me like ‘things werent so bad, you were fine, you just overreacted bc youre a dramatic selfish baby blah blah blah’ but every once in a while ill look at myself and look at who i am and where i am as a person now and i realize holy shit! i couldve been this person the whole time and i have been this person the whole time its just that so much was holding me back!! All that shit i hated myself for all that time i spent numbing myself all that energy i put in trying to keep myself distracted!?!??! it wasnt fucking me it was ME in survival mode. I was fucking surviving i was not living and its just crazy how those words dont sound that different but holy shit do they make the biggest fucking difference!!!!!!Â
