When It Finally Hits You That You’re Leaving Everything Behind, And Looking Forward
Leaving is hard for everyone involved. There is no easy way to move on and let go in order to grow but you have to do it.

We’re all a little broken in some way. If you can even let one person in to see the scary parts and to even listen to you when you don’t feel good enough then you’re already starting the healing process.
You know one more taste is going to be so bittersweet because it’s not love and you know that. You know deep down inside that this person isn’t the one but they definitely are a one. One that can stay as long as they want.
Moving is scary. Quitting your reliable desk job for your dream job is scary. Falling in love is scary.
Maybe for you, you find relief when you get lost in an amazing album by that singer who magically sings the soundtrack to your current life. Or maybe you deal with your pain when you talk to that friend who just gets it.
It’s the kind of love that I thought was just magic and amazing without any struggle. Of course to a naïve child, I didn’t see the work and effort they put into their relationship.

People often think because of this that either my dad wasn’t around or my parents weren’t good parents. Both of those things aren’t true. I don’t have dad issues, my mom is my best friend and my family is one of those good ones many people dream they have.

Mental illness does not mean that someone’s not normal. It doesn’t mean that I can’t do all the same things that others can. It just means that some things are harder for me. All of the people suffering from mental illness look normal and are normal. Our brains sometimes are harder to silence but I want to stress again that this doesn’t make us abnormal.
