You will be okay again, self. I promise you that.
I know how hard you've been trying to survive lately. There are times that you badly want to give up, but you still try your best to keep going. The pain in your chest is tremendous, yet you still hope for it to finally heal. The sadness that you feel every day keeps suffocating you until you feel so tired of everything, but you still try to tell yourself that everything will be okay one day. You've been crying every night, wishing for your suffering to end. You've been sobbing inconsolably on your bed, as if no one can ever help or understand you. You are completely miserable right now, and I know that you still try to hide it.
I want you to know that I will do everything I can to make you feel okay someday. I promise not to give up on you, even though most people have given up on you already. I will love you more on the days that you are in pain, and I will try to make you feel better when you're sad. My dearest self, I cannot promise you that everything will be okay today, but I promise that I will not give up on you until you finally heal from everything that you are going through right now. I will always remind you to be strong, even when you're alone, broken, or lost. I will give you reasons not to lose hope, and I will give you courage to fight no matter how weak your heart is. I promise you, my love, that no matter how hard it is, you will survive all your battles in life.
