I’ve come to terms with a lot of things. Being assaulted, being manipulated, being neglected, being alone. It hurts, and honestly I don’t know how I’ve gotten this far, but I’m glad I have. I will work to feel less lonely when alone, and I’ll work to support myself so I won’t NEED to rely on others for things I can handle myself. I need to learn to love myself enough to live for myself and not because I am afraid of letting others down.
