just read normal for us and genuinely as someone who lived through just about the exact same experience as mack, you wrote and depicted it so unbelievably well and SO realistically i literally don’t even know how to put it into words but i’m gagged, honestly very cathartic read.
you’re amazing and i hope you are also taking care of yourself ❤️
not kidding when i say the messages and the comments on the fic have made me absolutely burst into tears multiple times today. everyone is being so kind and supportive and i have received a handful of messages from people going through similar challenges and all i can say is it’s helping me feel a lot less alone in this.
i’m so glad this read has felt cathartic rather than suffocating because that’s how it felt for me to write it
anon i hope you are doing well and taking care of yourself as well🫶 life is hard and family is hard and often times we minimize and normalize that because it’s just our every day but sometimes taking a step back and looking at it from a third person perspective shows how strong you really are for just surviving
