Dear Young Me,
Don't try to help your schizophrenic mum. You're now too depressed to eat and you're in a hospital.
-Help yourself first
Dear Young Me,
You need to start listening to your head - and your heart. Don't do things just because you feel that they are expected of you. It will only ever make you miserable. Just be true to yourself and go out there and live YOUR dreams - not theirs!
-Wishing I Had Learned This Sooner
Dear Young Me,
You're going to discover that the most rewarding part of your education was the time you spent away from school. Don't let it define who you are; nobody else judges you by that standard.
- Pre-grad school Me
Dear Young Me,
You'll lose the baby because you wait for him to call for help. Don't wait.
-Heartbroken
Dear Young Me,
Thank you for leaving behind a big negative city, to persue even bigger dreams. You saved yourself.
-Love, A survivor.
Dear Young Know It All Me,
Listen to your older sister when she tells you to run from him. She sees what you refuse to see. You won't hate yourself in the end if you just listen this one time.
-Love, Older Still Learning Me
Dear Young Me,
You have good friends, let them help you. I know you think they won't understand, they probably won't, but they will always be able to make you smile. Just let them in.
-Older Me
