The Boy Between: A Mother and Son's Journey From a World Gone Grey

by Josiah Hartley

Breathe. Take deep breaths and keep breathing. Don’t panic, take things a minute at a time, an hour at a time, and each hour you get through is an achievement. Don’t compare yourself to anyone else. Nothing and no one matters as much as your mental health and keeping you present. Right now. Drink water. Eat some food. Wash yourself. Keep warm.
