It’s a choice. It really is. Something I’ve realized recently. Everyone goes thourhg their own personal struggle. It could be something as minor as forgetting a math assignment, or as horrible as losing a loved one. We all have misfortunes. But you can’t let it consume you. Dreading is really just a waste of time. It’s dangerous. To fall into this helpless pit of depression and anxiety and overthinking and self harm and negativity.
The only way out of it is honestly to pull yourself out of it. You have to take the first step into happiness. It won’t magically arrive out of nowhere.
Luckily, I have a really good friend who was able to pull me out of my teenage angst pretentious depression. My struggle was minor, but the impact it had on me was major. But she helped me through it. She held me up as I took my first new steps into a new mindset. And I love her for that greatly.
But honestly. One key advice I have to anyone suffering from unhappiness, is to surround yourself with people/things that make you happy. My instruments, my music, my books, and my good close friends are enough for me. If anyone or thing makes you feel negative, stop. It’s not worth it. It’s not worth falling for someone who makes you feel like shit. It’s not worth taking an AP class that stresses you out way too much. It’s not worth taking 2 jobs if you have extreme anxiety over it. Of course, they all have limits. But like all the cliches say,
“Life is too short to be unhappy.”
So if you ever need anyone to talk to, about anything. I’, here for each and every one of you. I know how it feels. And it sucks. But just belive me when I say things get better.
Thankyougoodnight
