Do they think I'm on drugs? That I have a life-threatening illness? That I'm anorexic? Emotionally, it doesn't get easier to hear those criticisms - but it gets easier to be resolute about my reaction to it.

I was so self-critical. I still am, but it's not as bad anymore.

I just want to feel everything.

I was screaming into the canyon at the moment of my death; the echo I created outlasted my last breath.

I never went to concerts when I was a kid, so I never knew if what I was doing onstage was right.

I got into therapy in the fifth grade because I said in a sarcastic way that I was going to kill myself, and they didn't get it then. Nothing's changed.
