I can't go into details on here but I just need some support and reminders that it will all be ok. That your survived this. That there are tens of thousands of you on SI that are going through the same thing, feel the same way, and are living proof that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. You guys are the ones who get it...I wish you were all here in my living room right now.

Imagine a ship trying to set sail while towing an anchor. Cutting free is not a gift to the anchor. You must release that burden, not because the anchor is worthy, but because the ship is.
