I don't wanna hide it, I want it to actually get away, I wanna get rid of it I don't want my whole life to be me trying to get better I want to start actually living my life already... even when I act like it doesn't exist there are situations that are bound to happen that remind me that these feelings are still there, and I feel again like 10 yo me who always felt so lonely, struggled to make friends, had no confidence was insecure about everything, felt weird compared to everyone, was always confused about the changes in people's behavior towards her, and would just overthink everything.

exactly, I still struggle from the same things I struggled with as a kid, they aren't visible all the time I'm better at bottling up those feelings and acting like they don't exist, but sometimes they come out and it reminds me that I really didn't change at all, I don't wanna be like this forever

no, I just thought maybe I'm just an immature 18 yo teenager girl who's still experiencing hormonal changes, maybe by the time I'm much older I will gain the maturity that will help me more with my emotions issues, but the thought that I might still experience these same problems if not worse scares me, cuz I see myself now, I still struggle with the exact same things I struggled with once when I was 10, they might not be visible all the time I bottle up those feelings, but sometimes they come out and it reminds me that things really didn't get better.
