to my intrusive thoughts:
if you don't believe in dragons
it is curiously true
that the dragons you disparage
choose to not believe in you.

vent but also a little bit of joy/defiance.
so a lot of the time, things are so bad i can barely even go out for a walk without spiraling into just. the worst thoughts.
but over the past few years. i've found some good people & some good advice. they help me believe i'm not horrible and i deserve to exist.
i've finally hit the point where i can kind of stop caring what other people think of me.
i finally have some hope.
it's not like everything is magically healed all of a sudden but it's so much better.

if you're dealin with similar things:
you do not deserve to suffer.
you deserve to be able to rest and find respite in your own mind.
i wish the absolute best for you.
i hope you come to a place where sadness and fear have less of a hold on you.
anxiety is not worth your time.
(also hobbies really, really, really help. immerse yourself in something fun or engaging whenever you can.)
