You tend to hear people say how "time heals all wounds", that it gets better, or you'll move on eventually, but... I don't think you ever do. Not really.

Hell, I'm hardly what you could call the poster child for healthy coping mechanisms-- [Atem would know this much from recent experiences, wouldn't he?] --and there are still days where everything feels worse than other days. And you have to take that in stride, or else you just... drown in all the shit and never come back up for air.

Point is, there is no magic moment where you wake up and the pain is gone, so don't expect that it will.
