I look happy in every photo, but I have not felt okay in months. I wanted freedom so badly, and now that I have it, I do not know what to do with my life. My parents trust me so much. If they knew the truth about my life right now, everything would break. I got the job I prayed for, but somehow I feel emptier than before. I am 26F, everyone thinks I am strong, but I cry every night after acting normal all day. I do not know why I am posting this, but I need to.
