I need help
There’s so many thoughts going through my brain and I just want someone to talk to. I feel that sometimes I can’t talk to my parents because they don’t fully understand what I’m going through. I have a lot of misplaced anger and I’m taking it out on my parents who don’t deserve it, sometimes I just get stuck in my head. I don’t know what to do. I just wanna go back to normal. I want to be happy again.
