I love you more than I hate this talk
I’ve had this conversation more times than I ever care to have. It never gets easier and frankly, its sucks, every single time. You may not be, “mine”, so questioning why I feel this obligation to address the situation with you immediately, is valid. The simple answer is, I’m a seasoned veteran on the topic. I've been through the thick of it within my own household, so I feel a sense of responsibility to help where I can by taking on these tough situations to shield others from having to feel the anguish that comes along with helping someone who struggles with self-harm.
