hi! im 14 too so i totally understand your struggle. i know its hard, life really can suck. but i believe in you, i think you can do whatever you want. and its hard if you feel "ashamed" of the things you own, but things dosent matter. your heart does, and your thoughts and mindset. you can have the best iphone and still be an asshole, or have the weakest thoughts. from your letter you seem like an person with incredible strength and potential.YOU CAN DO IT. i know depression and anxiety can be overwhelming, but you will push through. if you struggle with depression i would reccomend to take a moment everyday and write down 3 things you like about this day or your life. when i did this i started to focus on the things i liked about my life and my days. and it will be hard, but remember to love your body. your has carried you on the hard days, your hands have fed you and nourished your body, your head has made you this kind and reflectful. I BELIEVE IN YOU!!! I AM ROOTING FOR YOU AND YOUR FUTURE!!! GOOD LUCK!!!!
from another 14 year old on the other side of the world (norway)
❤️
