Because there was a time [where] I wasn’t reaching out to the people who were closest to me or I was in isolation, in desolation, in certain times of my life.

The internet was the only place I felt seen and appreciated.”“I think when it stops becoming that safe space and it becomes a very toxic, destructive place, your sense of self-worth gets destroyed as well,” she added.
