The Story of Me

I have issues with having to give context for everything. I usually have to give people context for why I am the way that I am and I feel like I have to tell my story. I’d rather tell it sooner than later because then it becomes that much more difficult to reconcile it with previous writings. I want to try and be honest and I feel like in doing that I need to explain how my anxiety has evolved through the years and how I’ve coped with it. I don’t expect that I’ll be able to sugarcoat much about my life because to be frank a lot of it has been hard. That’s not to say that I want pity from this. I don’t want a pat on the back for surviving all of it because honestly I know that people have had it worse. I just feel like this needs to be out there.
