Sometimes, I think I can't live any longer, and it's always in my head. I feel so devastated, but I couldn't talk about it with anyone. I just let the day pass as if every day was just a normal day for me—but it's not. Some days, I feel like I am dying inside. And most of the time, I feel like I am mentally and emotionally exhausted. But, of course, those things are not visible to others. Maybe they thought I was okay all along, but little did they know, I've been having a hard time fighting my silent battles alone.
I don't know how long it will take to be okay, but I'm getting tired of feeling devastated. Everything is slowly falling apart; I could feel it. And sometimes, I just want to stop fighting anymore. I feel so hopeless, and everything makes me sad. I thought it was just in my head, but it's all over my body and soul. I guess it's just so hard to live with this sadness and a broken heart.
