the reason i wrote this was to send out a message; and a clear one:

there is always more for you out there in this world.

guys, guys, i am reflected in this book throughout every story i've written.

i've fallen in love with nonexistent love and let it ruin me to a point of depression.

i've dealt with the pressure of success even though what we get on tests will mean nothing in the end.

i don't exactly follow the regime of being a girl either; if i could, i'd dress like a guy for days (because honestly their style is great?)

and if anything, every single one of us has cracked under pressure to please the people we're surrounded by.

the point is, i've wanted to commit too. dear god, please understand you are not alone. and all i can really tell you right now, is wait.

practice patience, and just wait. i promise you that things get better in the long run.

when you're past all the drama of everything when you're in middle school and high school, you're free. yes, you read that right. you're free. what's the point of committing if there's an entire world out there waiting for you?

please, stay if you're struggling. and if not for anyone else, for me. please. my door is open at all times; come talk to me if you need someone to scream to about someone else.

i love you, okay?

and that therapist? it's whoever you want it to be. therapists are people that listen and do the best they can to help; for a living. and let me add, therapy is not shit if you take advantage of it.

whoever you feel like would sit there and listen to harry, louis, liam and niall's stories without judgement is your therapist for this book.

i really hope you guys enjoyed reading this, because it was without a doubt a personal privilege to write this for you.

thank you for doing what you do, and being the beautiful souls i know every single one of you are. x
