I had my dreads for 3 years and decided to shave myself. It was a pretty difficult decision, but it was necessary. I've always felt a certain nervousness about my age and feeling like my life could pass me by without being comfortable or living it. I felt somewhat comfortable with my hair, but honestly, I went through a lot + it was damaged + it wasn't the way I wanted it.
But I don't know... now I feel empty. Sure, I can wait for it to grow, but how confident am I that I won't throw everything away? If I hadn't cut my hair, I probably would have continued to feel comfortable and obsessively contemplate suicide on a daily basis.
I probably wouldn't have been able to move forward, but waiting months, years to have it the way I want it is weird.

But I guess it's all part of loving myself.

I'm just tired.
I'm 21 and a half years old; But every day feels like survival, and thinking about it all makes me want to cry

I'm sorry you are feeling this way. You still have time if you decide you want to stay and grow your hair out again.

I guess, I think you're right, but I've apparently lost the ability to wait.

What's got you feeling this way? I know I wanted to die at your age and yet I'm still here a decade later, still thinking about dying. Idk, time just keeps on passing.
