I care about me now. When I didn’t care about me, I was, like, ‘Why is this going wrong? Why is my life so bad?’ But when you don’t care about yourself, nobody else is going to care about you. So I learned to love myself, even if nobody else does.

When we are younger, we say a lot of things without often believing in them. The thoughts within you are much more important, and so often, one can’t completely describe what one feels.
