“Somebody asked me today what the point of living is when you look around and all you see is shit. That question really bothered me. it makes you think, what is the point? If you have one problem that weighs you down, why live? Well, just because something is really depressing you right then and there, your gonna go and make a permanent solution for a temporary problem? When you go to sleep tonight and there are clouds over your head, does that mean when you wake up tomorrow the sun won’t be shining? The thing is it will be. Tomorrow, the next day, and eighty years from now. When you sit down and think about all the positives in life, it will always outweigh the negative. When you realize that, and embrace it, that’s one step closer to curing your depression.”

A year ago today, at this time i was baker acted in to Halifax mental center for cutting and almost attempting suicide. I cant believe it was a year ago. i can’t believe Ive been going through a year of recovery. but even if its been a year my problems have not disappeared and some days are really bad. But just take it day by day. Just because one day is bad doesn’t mean the rest of them need to be. There’s always tomorrow and that’s something to loom forward to and be happy about because its a fresh start. I am just so thankful for making it through what I did because i grew a lot from it. it changed who I am completely. Now today here i am in college and high school at once. In July i will be graduating both and will start living on my own and my career as a hair stylist. Im for once excited for the future and all the amazing things that are coming. when a year ago i thought things would be bad forever, i now realize things will get better and they did. keep your chin up, what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. year ago i thought things would be bad forever, i now realize things will get better and they did. keep your chin up, what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.
sorry I have been gone so long every one!
I’m sooooo swamped with school.
I’ll be sure to update more often. And I have a big post coming up this month. My story.
Stay strong! Ask box is open as always.
It is funny to find upon this page today, in two days I will be 8 months clean. Today was rough and I haven't been able to get it off my mind and then I land on this tumblr, my eyes almost full of tears now realizing how far I have gotten and that I need to keep going, thank you for this, people go through it all the time and some people don't understand they just assume. You didn't. I love you and your blog. I will keep fighting.
And I love you! Honestly thats what I’m here for, to keep fighting with you.
