Mental health is still something the world needs better education on. Life can be hard, but we are all living proof that we can get through it. You deserve to be happy. You deserve to love the life you live. Never let any person tell you different. Talking to, or trying to find someone to talk to, can be scary for many people. There are many recourses and if you need someone, know that someone will be there for you.
