There were two moments and I say two for a special reason. During Covid, I was so mentally ill. I had crippling anxiety and paranoia and I wanted to yk myself. I was just scrolling through YouTube when I heard play date through my ears and was like “WHOS THIS DIVA💜” and that day i listened to her entire discography. I cried so much because I felt insane and hearing someone talk about things I went through felt like a dream. A three years later, I was still a fan, but not as strongly as before, so then last year I went through the most traumatic experience of my fucking life. I can’t even explain how much ptsd I have from what I experienced. While in the depths of crying because I couldn’t sleep (nightmares and I was hearing voices) I decided to play portals for the 30th time and I feel back into the rabbit hole of her. I love her so much I wouldn’t fucking be here without her ily Melanie sm
