Hey I’m Kai. I’m a teen from the UK. I’ve suffered from depression, suicidal thoughts, and self-harm for a while now. Juice WRLD’s music inspired me to keep going, and comforted me when I had bad days. In his words “I toss my pain with my wishes in a wishing well. Still no luck, but oh well. I still try even tho I know I’m gon’ fail. stress on my shoulders like an anvil…”. His words and songs kept me going, always looking for the highs in life. For anyone out there who’s struggling, please keep going. I guarantee this world is a better place with you in it. Alcohol, drugs, or any other unhealthy coping strategies may seem like an easy and short-term solution, but it is not. Drugs and alcohol are not the answer, they just help you forget the question. But you are not a bad person for the ways that you try to cope. We all get addicted to something that takes the pain away. I hope you are doing okay, life will get better. You have to go through the worst days of your life to get the best days of your life.

Lots of love, Kai x
