“Love is not supposed to be beautiful. It’s supposed to be a raw, gritty struggle that forces you to face the most vulnerable parts of yourself, so that when the good times come, you can savor and enjoy them, fully appreciate what they’re worth. Otherwise, you take it all for granted. —Lana Myers”
― S.T. Abby, Paint It All Red

“Love can't cure a mental illness. There are lots of ways to help him, you can just be there. To listen. To talk. To cheer him up if he's having a bad day.

But also knowing that sometimes people need more support than just one person can give. That's love darling”
― Alice Oseman, Heartstopper: Volume Four
