โDear stranger, i was in the same place a year and a half ago. It was my best friend since school and I couldn't see past it. This year I did a 5k, slowly. Hang on.โ
โA note for the next person. I was in the same place a year and a half ago. For me, the group of friends feels broken. I've started painting again. You get yourself back in pieces. From someone who gets it.โ
โIf you're scared right now, I get it. I was right where you are a few years back. For me it was her mum still messages me. Today I made breakfast, went to work and laughed at something. Keep going, even slowly.โ
โTwo years ago, that was me. Her mum still messages me. That was my life. Some weeks I don't think about it at all. It doesn't stay this heavy. Sending love.โ
