I've been worried sick

Not hearing from you

Knowing you're struggling

Knowing I can't help

But not knowing what is happening

I wish I could help you

I wish I knew how bad it was

I don't know if you know this but...

We all care about you

We all love you

* * *

This was written about a specific situation but I figured the meaning can be useful for so much more than just this situation... If you're struggling, know that people do care and please reach out to someone. πŸ’œ

    I have felt these and see them in others, I always try and reach out but find it hard to ask for help myself. Excellent words

  • I suck at reaching out when I'm struggling. I tend to shut myself away from the world. I know what I'm doing is not healthy. But it is what it is πŸ˜…
