"How's it going my fellow freaks?" Deadpool asks with a laugh. "You're probably reading this because it has my name on it, right? Well, good for you, nice to know I have some loyal fans out there. Anyway! For once I'm not here to tell you how awesome I am, even though I am awesome. Which you should keep in mind. But, nope, not here to talk about me. I'm here to talk about you." Deadpool leans forward in his chair with his elbows on his knees, looking at you. "Heard you've been going through some shit lately, all of you reading this. I don't know what it is of course, each of you has something different. Maybe you lost a family member or a friend recently, or you got some really bad news. Maybe you're struggling with depression or anxiety, maybe you're stuck in a closet. Doesn't matter what it is, but there you are. Stuck in a load of shit.
"For years you've been told that you're not good enough, been taught that life hates you and that no one could possibly ever love you. Everyone around you points out your flaws, things you can't change no matter how hard you try, and it kills you knowing that you'll always be that way. Maybe you cut yourself because of it, because the stress and the pain is too much. Maybe you want to die, end it all and never wake up again. I know, I've tried. I've done everything in the book that I could think of, of course none of it did anything, but I still tried. And you know what? None of it helped. Not the drinking, the drugs, the blood...nothing. In fact, it made it worse because I knew it wasn't doing any good. Trust me, I know better than anyone what it's like.
"I'd like to tell you that it'll all get easier magically and that life will pick up, but it wont. I'm not gonna lie to you. But it does get better, but not because you sit around and wait for something magical to happen. You have to get up off your ass and do something about it. And I realize that it sounds like a hard thing, especially if a bombshell just got dumped on you, but keep reading, ok? I don't mean you have to go start a world changing event, no. As a wise man once said, 'everyone has a little bit of I wanna save the world in them, but I want to let you know that it's ok if you only ever save one person. And it's doubly ok if that person is you'.
"All you have to do is get up and eat something if you haven't in a while or take a shower that isn't freezing cold. Get up in the morning, look yourself in the mirror and say 'morning beautiful', even if you don't feel like it. Clean up your room, throw out the knife, go for a walk just for the hell of it, bake if you feel like it-do something. Because as long as you're moving and grooving, you're doing great." Deadpool chuckles a bit and sits up a little straighter in his seat.
"As a friend of mine said, 'wherever you set the bar, there you shall fall. But if you raise it just a little higher, you'll be amazed at what you can achieve.' You've hit rock bottom and life sucks, I know how you feel. But I believe in you kid! You could change the world if you set your mind to it, I know you could! So come on, show the world what you've got, you rockstar. And know that Deadpool's rootin' for ya.
And that's a wrap!
