Dear 12 year old me
In 10 years you wanted to be a university graduate you wanted to move out of the house by the time you was 18. Your brother was someone who you constantly argued with. Your dog did not like you Your mum was still away getting treatment, you went home thinking life was terrible like most teenagers do. You wanted to be on the west end but most of all wanted to be a mum and married by the time you was 22 .

You didn't graduate university because you never went there but you did go to collage. You did however find your voice in writing which became your escape when things got hard which they did. Your dad had a stroke when you was 18 and almost died your brother was your best friend through those times he was always their for you. You would lose him months later because he never woke up when he went to sleep one night.
You had to leave college because you battled with anxiety and insomnia but you got through it. I hate to tell you but you can't sing and you will realise this later but you can write stories which you started at 13. Your also not married or ever had a relationship at 22 because you help take care of your dad.
In the 10 years you will find strength you never thought you had and you will create friendships to last a life time. You are still different because that's who you are. You may not be rich and famous because you don't care about thoes things you have social anxiety so fame is not something you could ever cope with. In the 10 years you would have battled depression but you never once considered giving up you got reached out and got help. You do have to go to therapy but only because you chose to. Your family ignored you through your depression but it was you who took the steps to over come it. Your dog became your best friend . At 22 you still don't know what your future will be like but your only aim is to be happy. I don't know If you will ever get married or meet your prince but what ever happens I know I am strong and I can get through anything. Every journey has a path and it takes time to find the right one that works.
