Dear present day self

Please learn to let the past go.

Get over it. Seriously. 

You are killing yourself with it and if you keep focusing on it than you really are going to die alone.

Don’t rely on old promises you made to people you know are dead or do not even remember who you are. 

Don’t start cutting because you know you have an addictive personality. Don’t self harm because you know you’ll take it too far. Don’t not act on it because you fear letting others down. Don’t start because that is what it best for you.

Your friends love you. So stop listening to the doubt in your head that sounds eerily like your parents.

Please. Please just let it all go. 

But if you do end up doing something stupid… For the love of God, get back up. Don’t just keep wishing to die. Please get up… Please.
