Once you hit the bottom, you can only go up; that means that as long as things are steadily getting worse, you haven't hit the bottom yet. This is what I had to keep reminding myself during that whole ordeal. I wish I had gotten the chance to tell you before you left so you wouldn't worry about me so much, but as I hug my bear and hear your disembodied voice for the first of the many times to come, I think you already knew.
