“Deep in my heart I know I am a loner. I’ve tried to blend in with the world and be sociable, but the more people I meet the more disappointed I am. So I’ve learned to enjoy myself, my family, and a few good friends.”

— Steven Aitchison

“Music seems to hold everything together. It seems to make things not so chaotic sometimes. It seems to make things make more sense sometimes.”

“I think you lost all interest in this world. You were disappointed and discouraged, and lost interest in everything. So you abandoned your physical body. You went to a world apart and you’re living a different kind of life there. In a world inside you.”

Anxiety happens when you think you have to figure out everything all at once. Breathe. You’re strong. You’ve got this. Take it day by day.

“Let them judge you. Let them misunderstand you. Let them gossip about you. Their opinions aren’t your problems. You stay kind, committed to love and free in your authenticity. No matter what they do or say, don’t you doubt your worth or the beauty of your truth. Just keep shining like you always do.”

“And this feels like my last breaking point. How many times can I say, ‘this wasn’t the plan’ and smile and laugh and shake it off. How many times can I say ‘things didn’t go my way but i’m okay’, how many times does life have to teach me another lesson, how many times do I have to lose till I win? Because I’m 19 and today my car broke down on the freeway. My heart stopped just like the engine did and I thought I was going to die for a moment. I barely made it to the side of the road as smoke sent sos signals to the sky from the hood of my car. And hundreds of miles from anyone who could help, I had to find my way, I had to figure out what to do and I felt so scared and I was alone and oddly I knew it had always been that way. But I’m so tired of doing it on my own, I’m so tired of things being hard and having to live with it. I’m so tired of saying ‘look on the bright side’, I’m so tired of smiling to ease other peoples worries, I’m so tired of taking care of myself in spite of the hurricanes that ravage my life. I’m so tired and it feels like this is my breaking point because I made it back after 12 hours of uncertainty and fear and anxiety to an empty home. I had a headache and no one to hug, no one to wipe my tears and make me tea and as I put my bags on the floor in the dark, I longed for the days I was a child because it feels so long ago. I took a hot shower as a replacement of the warmth I needed and sitting under the stream of scalding water I cried and wished I had died that moment on the freeway.”

“But just because you’re strong and resilient doesn’t mean you never need someone to be there for you, to take care of you.”
