Somewhere in my thoughts
I am writing this for anyone who is fighting with their mind right now, and for me too.
There are moments when your head feels heavier than your body, when just existing feels like a burden.
Just know you are not alone. I am here too. I won’t pretend this is easy, because it isn’t.
I know sometimes the mind lies to us, telling us that the only way to feel better is to not exist. But that is a lie.
It’s really hard writing this, but somehow it also feels a little healing.
The fact that we are still here, still trying, means we still have something left in us to fight with.
So to anyone going through this… you can make it. Just take it slowly. One small step at a time.

Hi,
I have started writing a new series called Letters I Keep to Myself.
These are just simple letters from my heart — about life, healing, grief, mental health, love, and the things I sometimes can’t say out loud.
Some letters will be heavy, some will be soft, but all of them are real.
I’m not writing them to be perfect. I’m writing them to let things out and to understand myself better.
If you are reading them, I hope you feel less alone in whatever you are going through too.
