❤️ Everyone is a Mess ❤️ [The Beauty of Being Honest] [I'm Just as Confused as You]

I sometimes get messages where people reach out. Often these messages are just people talking about their experiences, explaining that they've been having a hard time, and sometimes even admitting that they need some help.
The above image is a response I gave to one of these messages. I feel it's a very known sentiment, but that also makes it an easy one to overlook. I know I'm just a random internet dweller, but please, please believe me that everyone finds this shit hard. Everyone doubts themselves, everyone worries, everyone feels like they're the problem.
You are not alone. You are not defective because life is challenging. Life is just fucking challenging.
So, when we find ourselves in these spots, maybe the best thing to do is imagine what we'd say to a stranger going through it. Would we be hard on them, judge them, be overly harsh? Or would we listen, would we be empathetic, would we want to help?
I can't speak for everyone, but I think most of us would lean towards the latter.
To quote someone I love "you're far more normal than you think".
P.S. Not to be a broken record, but please consider counselling - for the bad and good. Therapy isn't always about getting out a deep dark secret, it's often just mental health maintenance.

Even if the whole world is out against you if you can bring a smile to someone else you have already won. 🔥
