Hi. So I’m a 13 year old girl with a major anxiety disorder.

Yeah it sucks

I only stay up until 4am some nights wondering if I’m good enough and if I’ve met my parents expectations of me.

It feels wrong to be proud of myself. If I throw a really good ball in softball, I start to feel confident, then I pick out what I should’ve don’t different to make that ball go farther, or faster, then eventually start to think that it wasn’t a good throw.

Then an adult will come around and tell me i have no idea what stress feels like, or that I have no Idea what it’s like to have anxiety.

And sometimes I just want to say

SHUT. UP.

I’m tired of being just a “dramatic” 13 year old, and I have no experience in life whatsoever.

I agree, that I don’t have much experience, but oh honey I have been through the thick and thin of stress and anxiety.

So PSA to all the adults that think13 year old have it easy, because we have crazy body and attractiveness standards (not saying you don’t). But oh. My. God. Some adults are so, so unaware what we go through, with Instagram models, and just some downright disgusting people that body shame us. I don’t have a flat stomach. I’m very un-proportioned. And I hate that so very much, because I think I should have the flattest stomach and perfect body at age 13. Its ridiculous to think this is 2019.

Anyway thank you if you made it this far down, your the real MVP😂

Thank u.
