I like to feel that this little story would occur before the events of 'Hurricane Fluttershy', when she truly breaks free from her past.

This story in a nutshell describes my headcannon when it comes to Fluttershy. It strikes a strong personal chord with me, mostly because I have been there before. Many of us have, and we all know that it is a very... very hard hole to climb out of. The feelings of zero self-worth are very hard feelings to shake away, and the lingering effects of having been drug down to that level never go away. As much as alot of us try to say otherwise, they simply don't. Sometimes we grow stronger, sometimes we simply break down. The bottom line is that the effects are permanent. All of our experiences shape us into who we are as individuals, for better or worse. (I feel a need to give a shout-out to defender2222 for 'Faith and Doubt' for taking this sort of exploration down a darker, yet all-to-familiar path.) Some of you might feel that I wrote Rainbow as a bit soft in this, but cannon establishes that she and Fluttershy go way back, so I feel like she can be a bit more sentimental when it comes to Fluttershy.

If you ever have a friend who is in a tight spot, please, do not push them away. No matter how many times they come to you with the same problem over and over again, be there for them. There were some times in my life where I seriously considered suicide, but it was through some miracle that I managed to endure. My strength came from my want and need to prove them wrong. I'm just stubborn like that. Fluttershy finds her strength in her friends. We all find strength somewhere, but the minute we lose that strength is when the tragedies occur.

Be there for them. You might be the only ones stopping them from carrying those thoughts out.

Thanks. I try. :twilightsmile:

'twas d'aww inducing.

I hate it when stories do this to me! They make me feel so happy I just want to snuggle something!

In other words, this is adorable!

Glad you guys approve. I'll have to try to write more often.

Was a nice story. I know all too well how Fluttershy feels. :fluttershysad:

Beautifully written.:fluttercry:

*sniff* Fluttershy is my favorite because her experiences remind so much about childhood experiences.:pinkiesad2:

This was a nice, sweet, short story.

Well done

D'AAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW:yay:

This was a great little story. You really showed that Rainbow and Fluttershy were the closest of friends. Excellent work. I look forward to reading more from you in the future.

Very touching. Nicely done! :yay:

I know your feel, Flutters. I struggle to this day, but I bleed my bad blood through my pen, onto a pad of paper so that others might see that I am hurt, but not wounded. I understand that there are numerous 'flank-holes' out there, and I have about 3000 of them on my flank every weekday. All you really need is a friend or two, and your own way to bleed without wounds, and let the bad blood go.

Well written, my friend. You've hit home.

How could I not? The feels hit too close to home, because my self-worth is sinking, and the only things between me and a knife are my friends and my pen. You definitely connected the space between character and reader. As soon as I get to a computer, you'll have earned a new stalker.

*Sniff* This is unbelievable beautiful. Hold on, Fluttershy. You'll make it. :pinkiesad2:

As someone who spends life with zero self-esteem or self-worth, I've always related brilliantly with Fluttershy at every turn in the show. Honestly, that feeling is why it's taken me so long to even get on this site and finally post a story. I feel like this story not only reflects that same empty, draining feeling, but it also highlights the vast importance of a friend showing you the truth about how special you really are. I related with Fluttershy here just as I do on the show. Great job!

I know how flutters feels, but rainbow dash is absolutely right !!!! Sometimes you have to be good to yourself !!! live your life for yourself, not for others. their opinions don't determine your worth. fluttershy is letting her past experiences control how she sees herself. she needs to trust in herself. she's being way too hard on herself. its never too late to give yourself a good childhood. sometimes I think we live our true lives, in secret, out of sight of others, for fear of being judged. away from prying eyes. "fluttershy, replace those negative feeling, with the feelings you have for yourself. feel your own feelings, for yourself. get in touch with the feelings, your friends have for you, and hang on to those for dear life. give yourself credit, for being who you are. credit for how much you've changed, and grown. don't live in the past. make yourself a better future, with your friends. be who you want to be!!!
