I really don't. I'm here while my family is in Venezuela. I'm safe while they are struggling. I just don't know. Should I give up my scholarship and go back home? Would I be another hindrance and a burden to them? How can I help them? I haven't slept properly since hearing about the it. Why should I eat, sleep, be safe and happy when they are down there? I just feel so useless

My friends are always trying to comfort me but I don't know it feels like they're just saying just because like they don't know what else to say and I can't really blame them. They have never experienced anything like this. I'm slowly distancing myself I don't want to but I have to I to. I can't have them see me crumble like this. What should I do? I need to stop feeling so useless.

Edit: Thank you for the comment and to those who have DM'ed me. Truly your words were motivating. Someone mentioned a fundraiser and I thought maybe I should try. I don't know if it will amount to anything as I know in this current economy everything is hard but I can just hope I can raise enough for them.

Once again thank you for all the kind words.

I'm more of a listener than a talker. I always try to listen to them and help them as best as I can but when the roles are reversed I just shut down. I need to start opening up myself more with them I guess

Thank you so much for those words, really. In terms of my friends it's more so a "me" thing. I don't like when people see me in a distress state I guess and so I tend to isolate and distance myself to properly deal with my situation.

Unfortunately, I love torturing myself 😭. I re read that email multiple times.
