letting go

(from last week's postsecret)

I hate feeling torn between holding on and ruining everything and letting go and not having a way to cope. This year has been possibly the best and worst year of my life. I have so much to be grateful for, and I remind myself of that everyday. Yet I still find myself wanting to revert to what I know made me feel better about myself. Something that was stable when I wasn't.

I know that relapsing like I did before is not okay, but that doesn't make it any less appealing.
