Not the advice that people say when they don't know what else to say. Not "it will be okay" or "there are other paths." I know those things. I've been told those things. I mean what actually helped. What changed the feeling in your chest. What made the next day feel survivable. What made you stop measuring yourself against the version of the result that didn't happen. Asking for a friend. And also for myself.
