Maybe death isnt the answer to everything

Dear Bubbles,

You know things have been good. I've 100% moved on from my ex, found someone who truly treats me right, and even though I don't talk to my friends much outside of school I don't really mind. I'm happy.

Grades are average, eating habits are relatively on point, I drink more water, I feel more confident in my appearance. The one complaint I have is that my ptsd from a former friend is finally settling.

I sometimes catch myself having fake arguments with her in my head, I wake up sweating, as far as I know I've had two vivid dreams about her. Seeing her pass through the halls daily doesn't help much either.

As you know she tried talking to me the other day. Trying to find out why I don't like her and trying to manipulate me into believing her intentions weren't ill. She still takes me for s stupid middle schooler who will bow down to her whenever the fuck she wants. She doesn't realize she was all I had at the time and wasn't as aware of her toxicity as I am now. As a high-schooler I have more friends a significant other and a caring mother. I have no need for toxicity in my life and I shouldn't have to put up with it.

I know I'll get through it either way and I'll care less and less about the damage she's done on my life. But unfortunately I'll have to face it to get over it. Even if it's painful.

It's whatever though, I've done it before and I can do it again.

Yours truly,

Tomie Grayson
