I’m trying to spend time away from this blog but I feel like this needs to be said.

I watched this freestyle on youtube that made me think of this..

People often think that they are helpful that they are present. They think that just because they say that they are there for you at a time where you don’t need anyone to be, that it’s them ensuring you are not alone. It is not that easy though. The times a person needs someone the most, when they feel empty and want it all to end, when they stare at the darkness and forget that it will end, they lose themselves in the fear of there never being any light ever again, that is when people need the people that are their for them when everything is chill.

It might not look it all the time, but people struggle to be okay. Even when they are out and about, when they are smiling, you might think you as a friend are looking after them, and bless people that do, but do not forget that there is an entire other side that people tend to forget. Not when shit looks sad, or someone’s feelings are hurt, but when the air is still with despair. That is when a person needs someone to tell them that life is worth living, that the feeling of wanting to have never existed, or the feeling of not wanting to exist anymore is not normal, fuck normal it is not okay.

I hope that people understand that being there when everything is okay is just not enough. Of course I refer to those that actually care and our invested, a stranger or acquaintance does not need to give a shit, and it is wrong to ask them to. People should check in more often on the people they love that struggle with mental health. Sometimes a simple what’s up is not enough. Most people don’t want to burden another so they say nothing much, while literally restraining themselves from putting a bullet through their brain.
