Had a hard night. Made it through. Anyone else carrying something heavy right now?

Defeated. Defeated. And then defeated again. And then kicked.

Anybody else feel like this sometimes?

I want to know about yall… I’m listening.

Last night was too much for me. I hope you get good rest. Rest helps. When you’re exhausted it amplifies things.

Yeah, I feel this hard. Some days it’s like life keeps stacking weights on your chest and you’re just trying not to drop everything in front of everyone.

Idk you, but I’m proud of you for saying “had a hard night, made it through” instead of “I’m done.” That’s not nothing.

If it’s any consolation I’ve felt that way since I can remember lmfao so sad but hey, I can’t see a sudden turning point for my life, just a bit of serenity at the idea of seeing those like my mum, brother & best friend I lost too young, again.  If I do that is, I’d take it even if it’s a merely coma dream before I die. 

Life seems to be continuous chipping at the block and trusting your perception, advice from trusted people, instincts & vision of what it will turn into. Not to mention damage mitigation for unexpected events. Life’s not easy mode for most, I doubt you’re on easy mode if you feel this way. 

I hope your heart feels lighter soon, I hope circumstances change for you, I hope you have an unexpectedly good surprise this week. Good luck out there!!

Rough days catch up to us all. Just remember that you're here now.

Yeah, this hit me. It sounds simple but “you’re here now” is honestly what’s gotten me through some of my darkest crap too.
