You’re the fun friend.
You’re the one who makes everyone laugh.
You’re the one who lightens the mood.

Youre the one who lightens the mood.
But you have to remember, your friendships arent a one-way street.
They arent going to judge you.
They arent going to get annoyed at you bringing down the mood.
They are going to be honored you opened up to them.
You dont have to hide your feelings from them.
you’re free to tell them anything.
You might feel like you arent allowed to admit youre struggling because youre thestrong one.The independent one.
The one who never needs help from anyone because you might handle the world on your own.
Worse, it might make them see you in a different light.
It might make them think less of you.
But you have to remember, it takes strength to admit your feelings out loud.
It takes courage to walk up to someone and tell them you gotta talk.
No one is going to fault you for going through a hard time.
It might help you bond.
It might strengthen your connection.
You might feel like you arent allowed to admit youre struggling because other people are going through worse.
But you have to remember, you are allowed to feel the way you feel.
You shouldnt punish yourself over your own emotions.
You shouldnt convince yourself you arent allowed to be upset, because you are.
You dont want to make your mental health worse by refusing to talk about how you feel.
You dont want to hurt yourself more by trying to do the right thing.
You have permission to admit you are not okay.
