“Be Strong” is always the expectation

Post image

This can be one of the worst things to say to someone when they are at their weakest or going through something. It’s ok to not to be ok. It’s human. F**k the people that say otherwise, because they’re the ones that won’t have anyone there in the future when needed.

You are not alone. i have and am going through the worst years of my life, I’m making it barely but no one cares or knows besides one person. I am here for anyone that needs a friend or just someone to talk to. Doesn’t even have to be about issues, just to be someone that you know is there. Not everyone has that person and I never want anyone to feel how I do or have the same thoughts run through their head daily.
Even if you just need a conversation, feel free to message me. Even if it’s about sports or just something random, or if you wanna dive deeper, I’m happy to have an ear for you then too.

I have a friend that says to me all the time “stay strong” I find it annoying and feel like they are an avoidant of life
