this is who the fuck i am.

This is me, in all of my glory, my shattered and scarred glory. I call it that because of how far I've come in life throughout just the first two years of high school. I've been to the edge of sadness and and sank into the depths of depression. I have been sucked into the tornado that is anxiety. I have been emotionally battered by all kinds of people that should have been there for me. But you know what? I came back from all of that. That is now, and always will be the thing that matters most to me. I know now what I can take. I stand up to people that do not treat me right. And now, my only other goal than to stay stable and healthy, is to help. I just want people to come to the realization that I did. That I was better than all of those horrible things, and so are you. You are better than the nasty things that they tell you in the halls and message you online. You are better than the thoughts you think during the night before you fall asleep, those thoughts that cause the dam to break and the tears to fall. You're better than the razor blades  staring back at you in the bathroom. I've been there, and this is my job, to save you from yourself.

I consider myself lucky. I have been able to almost fully bounce back after all that has happened to me. I have learned that people will always judge and hate. And you will almost always get hurt because of it. But what I've also learned is that you will not get positive in life if you care so much as to what they think of you. Do you know why? Because this is who the fuck you are. No one will ever have the potential to be what you are. Don't be a waste of the beautiful person you will become. Life gets hard, but you have to stick out for those good times that we all live for. That's all potential is, sticking to it when things get hard and coming out on top. You can do this, and I'll do my best to help. Be who you were meant to be, no one else can.
