Letter to myself :)
dear me,
I'm sorry for treating you like crap all the time. I'm sorry I never let you fall apart when you really needed to. I'm sorry that I ignored you when you needed me the most. I'm sorry that you tried so desperately so fix others while your own hands were shaking. I'm sorry that I let you seal other's wounds when yours were bleeding. I'm sorry that I never let you open up or trust people who were worth trusting. I'm sorry that you go to sleep every night with tears in your eyes. I'm sorry that I made you smile when all you wanted to do was cry your eyes out. I'm sorry that I'm still forcing you to smile all the time. I'm sorry because I failed to love you the way you deserved. I'm sorry that when you're down, you just shut yourself and you tell yourself nobody cares even if some do. I'm sorry, I let you down. I'm sorry for making you distance yourself from everyone. I'm sorry I called you dramatic, an attention seeker and what not when you really needed me. I'm sorry I didn't respect your boundaries or triggers or anything. I'm sorry I never let you wear anything that reveals your arms. I'm sorry that I don't let you show the world your true self. I'm sorry for forcing you to tell everyone you're okay with tears in your eyes. I'm sorry that I ignore you all the time. I'm sorry for messing you up and I'm really sorry for making you the way you are right now.
@Basorexiaaa, what a great idea of writing a letter to yourself! Thank you for sharing it with our community. Your words resonated with many people.
You clearly are a living proof that having depression doesn't mean that you are not capable of compassion and kindness and love. You are a brilliant, complex human being who has a lot to offer! And we are all much more than our disorders.
Keep shining, keep being lovely and have a wonderful weekend. Lots of love!
