You can get through this,

You can endure this,

It won’t last forever,

It’s just a moment in your life.

A fucking hard one, but still just a moment,

You can’t see that right now though,

You think this is it,

You think this pain, this hurt, this anger, this shame,

Is your life… who you are…

It is not, trust me, it is not.

Don’t give up.

---

I need you to get through this,

You need YOU to get through this,

This isn’t the end for you.

I know it feels like fucking hell right now,

That you are sinking in slow motion,

Grasping, reaching, silently screaming for help,

But you can’t give in,

Not even to those crippling thoughts.

Don’t give up.

---

You can get through this,

I’m telling you because I know.

You weren’t built to stop here,

You didn’t go through all the pain and hurt just to quit now.

You aren’t seeing what is truly there.

---

You have to know that this time will pass,

Just like water flows,

Life is flowing all the time,

Stop swimming against the stream,

Go with it instead.

---

Do you know what’s waiting for you past this?

No?

Neither do I!

But I do know it’s better than this, much better.

Let’s find out and you can tell me how you told others how you got through the hardest times of your life and how it helped and inspired them.

How you chose to get through it. How you made the choice.

It was hard as holy hell and it took time. It took more bad days. Relapses. Times where you felt your heart was being ripped out and all you could see was darkness.

But you tapped in not out.

---

You may have hurt people,

You may have caused pain,

You feel worthless right now,

Nothing you do is right,

You fucked it all up,

You can’t keep up this act…

Hey! Don’t you fucking give up.

---

Take this breath, Step back, See what is important right now,

You!

Know that you are worth a whole fucking lot and if you weren’t here the people that care for you would never be the same.

They won’t be better off without you. They won’t. Trust me on this one. Your thoughts are lying to you. They absolutely fucking won’t.

They would rather know you are struggling and need help than lose you.

---

Choose to get help.

You think you know the ending but you don’t,

You are so much stronger and smarter than you know.

---

I need you,

You need you,

They need you,

You…
