We are in an upswing of online cruelty and hate crimes, and vulnerable people being harassed online into taking their own lives.
Please keep in touch with your trusted loved ones and reach out. Please remember the block button; you don't have to "be nice" and humor these people.
Their intentions are to break you down. Take breaks. Take breaths. It's not your responsibility to make yourself limitlessly accessible. You don't have to have comments on, you don't have to read every message, you don't have to please everyone. I promise.
Sharing things online and making content and all that is supposed to be fun. Fun still requires boundaries, safety. You're not a bad person for having boundaries. We all need them, in all things.
I know it hurts. I know you feel so alone. I know it's unbearable. I know it can feel like everyone is against you and like the world is crumbling around you.
It's temporary. All of this is temporary.
You'll see the other side and you'll laugh again. You'll pet another precious animal. You'll hug someone you love again. You'll eat another delicious food. You'll go outside or look out the window and remark what a beautiful day it is again. A beautiful song will make you cry again.
You'll feel those sparks of joy again. You'll feel safe again.
