I’d recommend this, but the take of “edgy and deep high school kid” that John green tends to take gets old with me. One one hand, I wanted to be that and strived for that mysterious edge, but also, that’s not real, not really, and it feels strange to depict it that way. Maybe I just feel too called out ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Graphic: Panic attacks/disorders, Grief, Death of parent
Moderate: Self harm, Car accident
