Opening up about struggles is liberating from "summary" of Turtles All the Way Down by John Green

There's this idea, I think, that our pain is our own business, that talking about it somehow makes it less ours. But the thing is, pain doesn't just disappear when we keep it to ourselves. It festers and grows, twisting inside us until it becomes something we can no longer ignore. That's what Aza learns in the process of dealing with her own struggles. She realizes that pretending everything is fine only works for so long, that eventually, she has to confront the chaos inside her mind. And when she finally opens up to her friends, to her mom, to a therapist, she finds a sense of relief she never knew was possible. It's like lifting a weight off her chest, like finally being able to breathe freely again. And it's not just about talking, it's about being truly heard, truly understood. It's about knowing that she's not alone in her battles, that there are people who care enough to stand by her side, no matter how hard things get. In sharing her struggles, Aza discovers a new kind of strength, a new kind of freedom. It's a reminder that vulnerability is not weakness, that asking for help is not a sign of failure. It's a lesson in the power of connection, in the healing that comes from simply letting someone else in. Because when we open up about our struggles, we let in light where there was once only darkness. We allow ourselves to be seen, to be known, to be loved. And in that vulnerability, in that honesty, we find a kind of liberation that is unparalleled.
