i used to be a fast learner but in college i failed all my classes in the last year or two couldnt graduateb and couldnt leave without a degree i developed an unhealthy relationship with climbing buildings and running from security i stopped going to class still had to pay for it though and spent most of my days sleeping in random buildings empty classrooms or public spaces i used to be the center of my social circle and a lively fun personality im so glad my friends decided to look for me they pulled me out of a dark place literally they started following me around when they didnt have class and would find me when they were between classes or on vacation it was a small gesture but they eventually brought me back to life i started going to counseling for the first time in my life and tried to get things in order i needed to repeat a few years and was diagnosed with depression and likely have adhd but i think i wouldnt have made it this far without my amazing friends sometimes we just need someone to be there for us even if theyre just sitting there to keep us company not even saying a word just being surrounded by all this positive emotion and encouragement without judgement was such a meaningful gesture for me if you have a friend going thru hard times just know being there makes a world of difference =
