One day you’ll meet someone and everything will just make sense. Why every other relationship didn’t work out, why no one else was ever good enough, why you’ve always felt like something was missing. Why that one breakup didn’t hurt as bad as it should have and why you let that other one get to you way too much. Every piece you’ve ever wanted and every piece you didn’t even know you needed will suddenly be there and everything will feel like it’s finally coming together the way that it should. And there are so many people who have found this person who will read this and completely understand. So if this sounds fake, impossible, or unrealistic to you, it’s just because you’re not one of them yet.
“When she didn’t get out of her bed for days, instead of calling it depression, you called her lazy. When she was high as the sky one days, jumping off of roofs for fun and lower than hell on other days wallowing in her misery, instead of calling it bipolar disorder, you called her hormonal. When she couldn’t talk to people on phone, or couldn’t hold eye contact even for a millisecond, with panic attacks in public places, instead of calling it anxiety, you called her shy and introvert. When she asked for help, a diagnosis, someone to talk to, instead of calling a doctor for an appointment, you called her an attention seeker. Soon depression was her best friend, always lulling her to sleep. Soon bipolar was the cool Aunt who couldn’t keep her thoughts under control. Soon anxiety was that second cousin who touched her every once in a while when no one was looking. Soon you called a doctor only for him to call her time of death.”
