Tonight, I feel small.

I don’t want to die at all, but maybe take on a whole new identity... sometimes I wish I could disappear. I feel like people would be better off without me. Erase myself and become someone new. Where no one knows me. And then do it again when I feel like it. I’m a walking embarrassment.

I have done that a few times. It feels okay, but I think it's maybe unhealthy if you're running from problems. Plus, it's hard to form personal relationships once you get in the habit of running.

I’ve never ran from a problem so far...in fact, I’ve challenged myself to face them many times... sometimes it’s gets frustrating and insecurities follow you and you just wanna be gone and wish no one saw anything. Forget.@caccoon

@Sb356 Maybe that is the problem, though? I don't know your situation, but I'm sure you're not a burden on anyone and they probably care less about negative things that happened than you think they do.

But! I say this without knowing much context.

I don't want to dissuade you from doing anything. I think you should do what you feel is best for you, and you'll learn along the way. I just wish you luck. 💙
