Fear holds us back
It controls us,
paralyzes us,
and destroys us.
We can try to stop it,
ignore it,
or fix it.
Yes, we battle with ourselves, and will someday break through
So why must others battle with us too?
"It's all in your head...Just get over it...Everyone is afraid of something, and you need to stop worrying...Just do what everyone else does: Ignore it."
Well since when did family mean rejection and abrasiveness?
When did it become okay to belittle psychological pain?
Why must there be a battle with you before the war with myself?
I need to know that you genuinely care.
And I fear that I mean little to you.

If you are going through something and people tell you to get over it, THEY are the problem, NOT you. Depression, anxiety, all that stuff is NOT your fault, and don't let people convince you that you did this to yourself. Sometimes, we can't control the hormones that our brain sends out. It is normal, and ALWAYS ask for help, even if it takes a few tries before someone really listens.
