Being able to talk to people who are fighting the same demons as I am is incredibly comforting. My friends and family try to be understanding, but they’ll never truly get it, and a small part of me is always worried they’re judging me, just a little bit.

It’s 2014. Aren’t people more aware of the seriousness of mental illness?

I want to get better, and then I don’t. Mostly, I’m terrified.

Shouldn’t I have this figured out by now?
