June 25th. I sent another message just to unsend it 2 seconds later. My best friend asked me how I was today and I said 'I'm fine', what word can I use to define what I feel? What language burns in melancholy and drowns in loneliness only to go sleep with grief?

i don’t need to put my mental disorders in my bio you can easily infer that there’s something wrong with me
if we did ask ourselves would the answer even matter we are a person as viewed by the ones around us they make us real otherwise all this could be just a dream
we are reduced to asking others what we are. we never dare to ask ourselves

Honestly it’s so hard to be the coolest friend who understands everything and calms everyone down
