Dear FutureMe,
this is just a note to say: it always gets better. always. in the moment it feels permanent and terrifying and like this is the way life will be forever and always, but that's not true.your brain is so clever and stupid at the same time, it is smart enough to trick you into believing that things are different this time and it will forever be horrible but it's also so stupid because that's not true!!
every single time things have felt doomed, whether that be in the midst of a panic attack, an anxious night, or an episode of self doubt and fear, it has always and I repeat ALWAYS gotten better. sometimes mere minutes after you've believed that this won't end.
I so hope that you already know and trust this by the time you read this but if not, if you're feeling scared and like there's no hope- just give yourself time. it gets better. it. gets. better.
there's no harm in trusting me so let yourself believe it. hold on to this hope, it will pay off.
I love you forever and always, 20 year old beth who has just come out of a panic attack🫶
