It truly does get better
I just wanted to share a positive post, maybe provide some hope for those who are where I was at one point.
This time last year, my life took a turn for the worst. My grandma died, the first guy I truly ever loved cheated and we broke up, my best friend, the one person I could truly trust with anything, who was like a sister to me, cut off all contact for no reason. I had't adjusted to college like I thought I would, had almost no friends. I was drinking almost everyday, smoking multiple times a day and gained 20 pounds in one semester. I spent most nights crying myself to sleep. Thinking it was the school, I transferred. And even though nothing significant happened, I got worse. I had no friends, went days without speaking to anyone, my new roommates didn't like me, I truly wanted to die. I remember crying so hard I would throw up, wishing it would all just end.
I eventually began talking to someone and began reading a lot of motivational blogs. I started working out and eating healthy. I slowly started to feel better...I was no where near perfect but the nights of crying became less frequent and I just felt like I had been woken up out of a deep sleep.
When summer came around, I made new friendships with coworkers, met a new guy I truly like and can see potential with, and transferred again to a new school where I have already had some amazing experiences with some amazing experiences.
I know it seems impossible, but eventually what you are feeling, what you are going through will pass. I know it all seems unfair that everyone else seems to have it better but they don't. Don't be afraid to reach out for help, I guarantee someone out there cares about you even though it might not seem like it. If anyone reading this feels like no one will listen, feel free to message me because I've been there and I care.
Hang in there everyone
