Personally, most of my life has been both difficult and unpleasant due to mental health issues (and capitalism), so I'm just proud of myself for still being here.

The beginning of the year, I lost my best friend of over 35 years to an overdose- nine days ago I lost my dog of over 15 years, and now my mother is intubated in a hospital 3,000 miles away because of severe liver damage causing internal bleeding and I can’t go to her because I currently have chronic maxillary sinus infections and and cannot fly.

I’m here.
