I realize I only come on this app at my lowest

Every time I have come on here, I have been at my lowest. I have been relatively good for the past year. So much so I forgot this place existed. With the way I clung onto this platform last year even I am surprised to admit that. Today was rough but all I want to say is I really appreciate this place, and all the people on here that dedicate their time to helping someone else out at their lowest. I can’t count the number of nights I spent bawling my eyes out writing a post because this was the only way I could express my emotions out aloud.

I used to hate myself for coming on here because it reminded me that the only reason I was here is because I didn’t have the guts to talk about my problems and reach out to the people around me. I couldn’t admit that I was going through a hard time and really needed help. But this platform saved me.

If I never came on here I would have never reached out at all, and I would still be suffering in silence. This was the first step in me healing my wounds. Not only have I been seeing a therapist, any time I need help I can actually admit it out loud and am able go into the arms of friends and family without the overwhelming feeling of being a burden. I think that’s why I don’t come here as much anymore.

Thank you to everyone on here for being amazing helping me through the darkest point of my life. Anytime I feel alone I am comforted by the fact that this place exists. Thank you for allowing me to express myself without feeling like a burden. I am a better person today because of it. 💕
