This is just my story one of many. My friend Nina and I are starting a channel called Limitless it's going to have videos similar to this where we share our beliefs and personal stories. Limitless / @limitless3310 I'm posting this mainly for the fact to break the silence about mental illness and eating disorders when I was going through my hard time I felt like I could't talk about it because people would think of me as a freak I felt so alone and felt like I was the only one that was going through this. I hope this video helped at least one person Just remember if you are going through a hard time remember you are loved and asking for help does't make you weak, sometimes we have to go through hard times because in the end it shows you just how strong you were and are. There is good in the world and happiness and you got to find the fight within you to regain control . Things can sometimes feel hopeless but you just have to fight though's inner demons and ask for help sometimes we all in help but are ego's get in the way of that. I think faking being happy was sinking me lower into my darkness because I wasn’t feeling into what I was feeling I was stuffing down that emotion even more and pretending to be something I wasn’t and the suppressed emotion always came back up, Mental illness isn't a choice it's a problem with the brain and I think people don't talk about this issue because it's not generally a nice topic to have a conversation about when people talk about these issues they are down in whispers. I think it's time for someone to break the silence. You may feel like no one cares about you and life would be easier without you Deep down inside I know this is not the case there will always be someone who loves you and cares about you. You might feel helpless and just because you feel like that doesn't make it true. Someone cares and loves you even if you don't realize it. Don't get caught up in the past think in the present you can't change the past by thinking about it the damage is done and let the past be the strength to push you towards your future try to remind yourself it's done and over. I'm not Christian but I believe there is a higher power and I call him Creator I'd like to think that he has a plan for us all and there is a reason why you are on this earth everyone is special and beautiful and everyone's life is worth more than words can express. Stay strong everyone I know you can get through whatever your dealing with and you don’t have to do it alone.
