“Sometimes it feels as though I live just below the surface, and everyone else lives above. When I try to be, and sound, and act like they do for too long, it feels like I can’t breathe. As though even my lungs were made differently, and I’m not able, or good enough to inhale the same air as the people I meet.”
― Alice Feeney, His & Hers

“Sometimes I get lost in my own thoughts and fears. Trapped within a world of worry which, deep down, I know only exists inside my head. Anxiety often screams louder than logic, and when you spend too long imagining the worst you can make it come true.”
― Alice Feeney, His & Hers

“Sometimes we hold on too tight to the wrong people, until it hurts so much we have to let go.”
― Alice Feeney, His & Hers

“We are all of us more complicated than the roles we are assigned in the stories other people tell”
