Sometimes I feel jealous of those who donât try. Those who don’t have any expectations. Donât get me wrong, I am grateful for all the things Iâm good at, but sometimes I wonder what it’s like. When I have a good reputation among teachers, I feel like I donât have room for mistakes, like Iâm…

Irony

Forgotten
Since my anxiety started, I became socially awkward. The fear of socialization always made it hard to make long lasting relationships.

Understanding âtWitchâ
A few days ago I came across an article about âtWitch,â who was a dancer and DJ on the Ellen show. He committed suicide leaving behind his wife and children.
