What we tell others vs. ourselves can be very different. I shared a quote the other day I wanted to share with you if it helps. It went along the lines of "don't fake being okay for that only hurts yourself. Be real with others just don't let that darkness consume you."

When I'm stuck in a "funk" as I call it, I get very defensive and say I should have hidden more, then all these other people wouldn't be involved. But if you have the right people who will support you and don't view you as a burden, you realize the value in becoming vulnerable. I realized I may be on a totally different path if I had kept everything hidden... as it can be exhausting to switch between the "fake" and "real".

You have to let yourself be you and breathe. Find peace within yourself that you don't have to be or act or try to look perfect. That we all need to build each other up in our brokenness or pain, or whatever we go through.
