There will be days that theyre drowning and you wont even be able to throw them a life vest.

It will hurt you, but trust me, its hurting them worse.

There will be bad days and even worse nights.

Theyll feel on edge, and because of that, they wont feel like talking.

Youll ask them whats wrong, and theyll say nothing.

It might bother you, but theyre telling you the truth.

Everything could be going right, but still, they can still feel so wrong.

When that happens, assure them you love them and that youre always here for them.

kindly, dont under any circumstance, ever, utter the words that theyre over dramatic.

This will make them angry, and that will confuse you.

To them, its an empty promise and one that you cant possibly follow through on.

So instead, work through the problem with them.

Theyll feel bad for you.

Theyll feel undeserving and like theyre a burden on you.

yo tell them that they arent.

Itll be hard sometimes, and you will get frustrated.

Thats understandable, but yo dont take it out on them.

yo check in with them whenever you’re free to.

When you dont check in, their mind goes wild.

To you, it will seem so unrealistic and impossible.

So, are you ready to give up yet?

If not, thats good.

Its so damn hard to love someone when you have anxiety.

People with anxiety cant help but think about every possible outcome.

Especially not for you, because they will never take anyone or anything for granted.

Because people with anxiety care so much.

Most of the time, they care too much, and they love even harder.

They will put you first, always.

They will protect you fiercely.

So kindly, even during their worst moments, dont take them for granted.

They dont need you to save them.

They just need you to be there.

Be their safe place, and if anything, theyll be your savior, because they can handle it.

Theyve been saving themselves for years.
