Hey there,
First off I just want to say thank you for being open with us here. We appreciate it and don’t take it for granted.
It is nice to find a song that you can relate to, I think it can mean a lot.
Life is a lot. There’s so much that goes on with feelings, things happening, I’m starting to think about it more as I get older. There is a lot to life.
I have been there many times, where I have felt like it was my time to go, like nothing would get better. I recently had my 25th birthday and I am grateful that I am still here, I am glad I did not kill myself in those times of pain and being lost. I have my days still, but I am glad to still be here in the end.
I thought that death was my only way out many times, but I have learned that was not the case. It takes time, and work, but things can and will get better.
I moved across the country to be with my boyfriend, away from my small unknown hometown. I have had experiences I never could have dreamed of having if I stayed. We are in a tough time right now, but I have faith it will get better. I remind myself after every time things have been bad, they have gotten better. It takes time, but it’s possible.
I know loss well, I understand how difficult it can be. It’s like no matter how much time passes it is still hard to make it through the day. I try to remind myself that they are always with me in spirit. I am not really religious, but it helps me to know that in some sense they are still with me.
I’m sorry about your brothers, I cannot even begin to know how hard that must be.
Thank you for being open with us here… I believe that sharing how we feel and what we have been through can help others feel less alone. There are people who will listen, and people who care, I know this because I too have been there.
What are some things you enjoy doing? For me I enjoy art and music, those are the things that keep me going, that give me hope.
I believe in you, keep holding on. You got this.
Lys
