A letter from January 8th, 2016

Hey. This is you from 10 years ago. Can you believe it? 10 years has passed. 10 years ago from today (mine not yours) you didn't even think you'd be alive. You finished a year of university. 8 years ago you questioned your *********. 1 year ago you finally finished coming out to everyone you knew. 5 years ago you would self harm and try to **** yourself. You did this from 7th-11th grade. Now you're fine and although you still have your moments where mental health gets hard but you know how to deal with it. I'd imagine that you do better at it now and anger isn't as big of an issue. Can you believe that there was a time you didn't think you'd make it to 18? Now you're almost 19. Jesus Christ you're old. No offence, because now you'd be almost 29. HAHAHAHAHAH YOU'RE ALMOST 30!!!!!! Old fart you. I hope you know what you're doing as an adult now though because I have no clue how things work now... Ooooo do you have a house with birds and cats? I love cats and birds. I'm obsessed with penguins and I hope you still are because you have a lot of them.... Do you have a girlfriend or wife or are you really just the cool uncle? Oh my god, your friends are probably married and popping out children now... Then again I don't know if you have kids yet. Time has passed a lot, but look how much you've gotten through! I think I like sending these letters because it shows what you thought when you were younger. You always said that you didn't want to forget how it felt to be younger. Anyways, I hope like is treating you well and that you got to travel the world. You do you mate!
