Good evening friend.
How are you feeling? You’ve been acting strange lately, is everything okay?
You know you can speak to me, your secrets are sealed within me.
Uh? So I was right, you haven’t been feeling good lately haven’t you?
Let me sit next to you, want to talk?
It’s okay if you don’t but trust me, you’ll feel better after lifting all your stress from your chest.
Mhh. I understand. Perhaps we can do something to make you forget about all of this pain for a while, what is it that you enjoy the most? Drawing? Writing? Maybe dancing or singing? Anything. You should distract yourself.
Hey it’s okay to feel down, you are not wrong or messed up just because you feel sad.
Don’t even think that your pain is less justified because others have it worse. That’s a very wrong way to face your issues. Everyone is different, therefore everyone has different ways to cope and feel after certain things. Even what could seem a non-significant thing to some, for others is the worst thing in the world and it’s okay. It’s not wrong feeling down for a bad grade, or for a fight with someone you love, or for grief. If you feel sad it means that whatever is happening it’s a bad thing for you, and that’s enough justification.
Even if there is nobody you can truly trust with your feelings, remember that it will be over soon. Everything is going to be okay, no matter how hard it seems. You can cry if you feel the need to, don’t force yourself to hold the tears. It doesn’t matter what others think, be yourself. Cry until you feel better. With me, your friends, your loved ones, your pets. And if they dare to judge you, they are bad people.
You are not weak or weird for crying over “stupid” stuff. Nothing is stupid if it makes you cry. As I said before, you have every right to take your time to process things and let it all out.
Just please, don’t do anything that could hurt you. Don’t act irresponsible, I trust that you are strong enough to be okay. If you did in the past something bad to yourself it doesn’t matter anymore, the important thing is that you don’t do it anymore.
Do whatever makes you happy. It doesn’t matter how stupid can be to others, it’s your thing! Yours and only yours, you are special.
You deserve happiness, fight for it.
You can do it.
