“We fight our most brutal battles entirely within the deepest confines of our own minds, in a place where nobody else, however compassionate or well-meaning, can come close to reaching. Friends can cheer you on, people who love you can show their concern and affection constantly…in the end, it doesn’t matter, you’re still alone. If you can’t save yourself, it can’t be saved. I wish I’d realized this sooner, it would’ve saved me years of grief.” – Kirt Manwaring
