This inspired me to write something :) To the next guy who is up to the challenge of dating me: I am clingy. You will have to constantly reassure me you like me. I may burst into tears when you tell me you love me because my mind won't let me believe it. I will hide my scarred wrists under baggy sweatshirts and wear jeans to the beach because my mind will tell me I'm too fat for shorts. And I may turn away from you while crying. Please believe me when I say it isn't you. I'm just so used to dealing with this on my own. I may push you away so you won't be an innocent bystander when the ticking time bomb that is my life finally explodes. Edit: thank you for all the likes ❤ I really appreciate it!
I literally cried during this. I never noticed it was actually a problem other people had but I have to ask my bf almost everyday if he still loves me or even likes me and I apologize after cause I feel bad. I don't text him cause I feel like I bother him. He reassures me all the time that I never bother him. We've been going out for about 2 months and its a serious relationship but I don't think I should tell him that I sometimes suffer with anxiety and depression and stuff. I get too paranoid and I never thought it was bad. I just thought it was a little thing like my OCD. I have so many problems! Why can't I just be normal? I want to tell him about it. I want him to reassure me that my presence is needed in this world that I'm worth while. That I matter. Things have been pretty rough this last week. I want to tell my bf that "I'm sorry that you're dating me" but he might take it the wrong way. idk. He doesn't even know that I tried to kill myself once. He doesn't even know. Sometimes I feel like I should tell him but I dont want him to ask questions or think I'm suicidal or something. idk what I'm even thinking anymore.
We broke up. But I got my best friend to reassures me that I'm needed and without me he's lost. He really is my life. Without him and my other best friends, I'm nothing. They're whats keeping me here rn
This hit me so hard... I've been dating my boyfriend for a few months now and now we're in this huge fight because... I don't know. He got to close I think
I have a crush on someone with depression and they have disappeared off all social media and I miss them and I love them but they don't know that it's been 5 days since they haven't texted back and I'm really sad
Arjumand Bano Chughtai Give it some time dear. Depression is a horrible illness and it can take weeks sometimes even months to feel able to reach out to anyone. Just don’t give up on them.
Relevant except when she gives off the impression that your partner has no idea of the definition of depression. My ex was more depressed than I except I am this type of depressed/paranoid person. Where as he just seemed more like he'd given up on life and stopped caring at all.
1:26 "...that you haven't grown tired of me in the meantime? Because I have gotten tired of me in the meantime."
THIS.
Nadia Veliz I listen to this poem all the time. I actually used that line in a speech. with credit of course.
"I said I wasnt a jealous person so why am I so fucking jealous?!"

this sums up dating me, beautifully tragic

This is exactly what my boyfriend was like. He killed himself.
