I've seen alot of nasty posts in regards to people making "non-essential" trips. Do you ever think maybe that guy buying a gallon of paint knows he must keep busy because idle hands in the past has caused him to relapse and pick up that case of beer?

Do you ever think maybe that guy buying a gallon of paint knows he must keep busy because idle hands in the past has caused him to relapse and pick up that case of beer? So he's using this time to do home improvements, something that keeps his mind busy while feeling a sense of accomplishment, trying to avoid painful triggers while possibly alone? Or maybe that lady buying bags of soil and seeds, who has struggled with depression and suicide? How do you know that planting and watching something beautiful grow during this time of darkness isn't essential to her and holding on to what little hope she might still have. We need to remember that it is impossible to know just by looking at a situation from "our" small lens what someone is truly going through or where their mental health is at. Everyone handles chaos and healing through different means, and I know we are all on edge but please stop being so judgmental of others. 💖

My heart is broken...from one moment to another, things went from joy to pain and sadness. I still don’t get how a wonderful night ended in such a tragedy. Everything was so chill, so normal; we were all laughing, having fun, and suddenly everything changed 😢 I can’t stop crying.

Everything was so chill, so normal; we were all laughing, having fun, and suddenly everything changed 😢 I can’t stop crying. I wish this pain on no one...Nobody should go through this ... I can still hear everyone screaming in panic “omg!, nooo!” I tried but I couldn't do anything ...... I dropped our only bottle of red wine on the floor and I couldn't save it 😂😂
