The past couple months have been really tough for me. My best friends who I’ve been close to forever have really flaked off. My mom and I haven’t had a good relationship for the past year and a half and I just feel so lonely and sad a lot lately. I have wanted to go and get some help and talk about things but I can’t afford a counselor. Overwhelmed sometimes by my emotions, I am just trying to keep my head above water some days.
