hi, i love your poetry and also just spent 5 days in a behavioral facility after being wrongfully Baker Acted and I just want you to know that all of those feelings are painful but they will pass and your brain being mean to you!! Medication, CBT and whatever tools you learn on your journey will genuinely help you but it will take patience and time. All our journeys are different but you don’t have to be any of those things to deserve to live. The idea of being an accomplished adult by 25 is an unrealistic and unfair standard, I know so many people who are in their 30’s/40’s/50’s and are just now going back to school to do what they want to do, starting new hobbies, one just came out as a lesbian and is finding herself! Just let yourself be 24, however that looks!! You wouldn’t judge a friend for any of these things, please take your meds and be gentler to yourself!! I met a lot of incredible people who felt the same and I just want you to know you aren’t alone and that I’m rooting for you!!
genuinely tearing up thank you so much idek what to say at this point
