This is hard

It never gets easier does it. I just want this pain to end, even when I attempted awhile ago I never felt this horrid. How am I supposed to carry on like this when I can barely keep it together. I feel so dead inside, my heart just hurts. The constant flashbacks and pain 💔
Im trying but how do I keep going, Where's my hope and motivation gone 🥺

Sometimes when the people most like you don't love you, it is a hurt that can cause the greatest pain, and this pain can lead you to hate everything.

How are the flashbacks doing today? Is there anything specific that might be triggering them, or anything we can do to help you manage them?
The pain you're describing can feel never-ending, but you're not alone in this. It's okay not to feel okay right now, is there anything you need to ease the burden a little?
It's okay if you have days where you feel like you can't keep it together. You are doing the best you can and that is everything. Motivation and hope disappears but remember it will come back. The bad feelings will not last forever.
I want to remind you of how brave you are for opening up with people on The Mix. Your strength is truly admirable.
Please keep sharing and opening up. You don't have to go through this alone. We are right here with you.
