catladysoul:
i also find it really interesting that i can be in the car at night with my friend, and we are both hyper aware that we are both in terrible places, but also that we cannot save each other, and we don’t feel guilty or bad about it. i think it’s a really valuable thing, to have a friend you can…

ashleyaron:
