So if you have those thoughts, if you have those feelings, know that you are not alone. And when I say that you are not alone, I mean that people are feeling that feeling right now. They have those thoughts, those worries now and that you are not alone. We weren’t meant to do this alone… We weren’t meant to figure this all out on our own. We aim to figure this out together.”
