"Hey younger me, it's hazy. I know it's been some time since we last spoke, and I know that it feels like there's a lot of distance in between us, but I want you to know that I still think about you daily, and I hope that you continue to grow up into the person you're meant to be. I know this might all fall on deaf ears, but I left you a message if you ever want to hear it, and I think you should. Love you."

what does it truly mean to be "staying strong"? does it mean never addressing your feelings and acting as if you're okay? that's not human at all; we need our moments to address our thoughts before they snowball, but there's a proper balance to it.

Sometimes we get into situations without doing anything.

But we can persevere through it.

At your lowest moments, it's better to stop moving instead of moving backwards.

The boundaries and expectations people place on you, don't make you less of a person.

Welcome to the first episode of the "Only Rainy Days" podcast, a place all about mental health (advocacy).

There's more to living than just living, but figuring out why you're living, and how to get to that answer.

This is the "Only Rainy Days" Podcast, and I hope you enjoy it.

A lot of talking and mental conflict has led up to this point, but I just needed something to upload as a starter.

First episode very soon, and I hope you enjoy the ride.
