Earlier this year when my depression got really bad, I filled an entire notebook with "I want to die." Over and over, I lost count of how many times I wrote it. Then I stepped out for a bit and came back and. my parents had seen it.
And what they said was. they said grades don't matter, nothing matters, just please stay alive.
I broke down. Because here are these two people who worked SO HARD to have me, who raised me with everything they had, who genuinely treasure me. and every single day I was sitting there thinking about dying. I felt so pathetic. so sorry. I just cried the whole rest of that day.
I'm sorry that someone like me is their daughter.
