She bears pain better than most and that’s why people do not think she is struggling. They do not recognise she is hurting each time her lungs inhale and exhale, how every breath feels like a dozen stab wounds.

what i wish i had the courage to say #17
It’s crazy how 2 years ago the person that made me the happiest would then proceed to ruin me, I still think I’m a piece of shit that shouldn’t exist. I still have suicidal thoughts, I think I’m obese, I think I’m stupid and that I’m just not good enough. I’m still paranoid that you’re just going to turn up at my work again and make me have a break down. I’m still terrified to go out in public in case I run into one of your “friends” again. I saw 2 of them in Guildford the other day and I had a panic attack and had to go home. But the worst of it all is I still care about you and love you. And for that I say fuck you toby. I’ve found love now, one that isn’t so twisted like it was with you. But what you did to me still affects me.
I don’t chase people anymore. I learned that I’m here, and I’m important. I’m not going to run after people to prove that I matter.
