Stop blaming your problems on
"society" when you trap yourself
in your own mind.

Don't call yourself  broken
if you've never tried to fix
yourself.

If you haven't used up every
single remnant of your strength
trying to stay alive and
trying to be positive, don't you
dare even think about giving up.

Even when you have reached all that
you can take, take some more.

Your heart is still beating,
your lungs still function,
and you're still blinking,
and you don't even have to
think about controlling
any of that.

So now you think you're broken,
society has hurt you, judged you,
and you can't take it anymore.

Go back to the basics.

Live. Breathe. Blink.
