Nice to see you back its been a real long time :)

I think youll find that a lot of people suffer from anxiety and depression problems. There are more people out there who can relate and share their experience with you to help you know that youre never alone. I think its great that you have your religion and writing to help you. Time (the shittiest and most torturous remedy) really really really does help.

You remind me of me when i was in HS, literally everything from the self-harming suicidalness, to not planning any type of future because if I didnt go to college i didnt have one anyway, even to the non-heterosexuality we share. I literally didn't plan past senior year because i figured i'd be dead so i didnt see a point, it was literally ALL i thought about for around 365 days of my life and all my efforts were towards dying. But I'm typing this now as a sophomore in college who just came back from studying abroad and has incredibly accepting friends. Every time people would tell me "it gets better" I just wanted to punch them because I thought it was such a cliche thing to say, especially from people who had no idea of my pain...............but it really does. And the fact that you have found your own outlets of positivity already prove that. I didn't use any distractions back when i was suffering but I wish I did. Trust me they'll help a whole lot :)

I hope you cut out those toxic people out of your life. I had the same and trust me when the people who say shit like "your depression is making ME feel uncomfortable ://" are out, its like a deadweight off your shoulders. Honestly i hate those people haha, i can go on and on about them.

Idk I never appreciated any advice and became hostile back when it was given to me so I'm not sure of my place in giving it to you. The only thing im 100% sure of, is that time and time and time helps everything, as does writing (your feelings) and becoming involved with the church :)
