for me its slowly emerging from an incredibly dark well of despair step by step, hopefully
the damage this year has done on top of other damage has been.......... hard
idk if anyone else feels this way! or just me!
i am probably more open than is wise about mental health stuff on here but man oh man if youre struggling youre not alone and if youre scared youre not ready for the world to reopen youre not alone and if youve felt unmoored and purposeless and adrift youre not alone
