It's like the only advice someone can give you at certain times in our lives, because, simply, there really is no other way to explain it. Although life feels crappy, and everything around you is falling to pieces, IT WILL GET BETTER - you just don't know it yet.
The thing is, we just don't want to hear it.
I was void to it. I was ignorant to it. All I cared about was feeling how shitty I felt. I couldn't imagine feeling any other way, and didn't seem to want to either.
But time passes, things change and, hey, look at me now. Just like my Mum said 'we're going to fix this', and we did.
So what if it took 4 years to reach a point of total clarity with it all, I still made it here and things have gotten better.
It all just takes time.
It takes time for these sayings to work - for these things to stick.
Everyone around me was saying 'It gets easier', 'It gets better', and I just wanted to be like 'YOU'RE GOING TO SAY THAT BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT FEELING IT OR GOING THROUGH IT!' - I couldn't deal with trying to be comforted. It all just hurt too much to even try.
Whereas now, fast forward a little bit, and I'm the best place I've been in a long time. I'm so happy, so in control of my mental health, and enjoying my life so so much. It seems like all that hurt and upset never even happened - it's simply not something that affects me too much anymore.
I'm okay.
Everything always works itself out.
