Thea is Drowning
Mermaids, by their very nature, breathe perfectly fine underwater.
Yet Thea is drowning, crushed by the weight of the sea.
This is a story about mental health, bad thoughts, and a mermaid.
CW Descriptions of metaphorical drowning, anxiety and depression, bad thoughts, allusion to an abusive home, and self loathing.

An amazing work that's pretty atmospheric to me, I hope that Thea can keep on fighting on until she too can be like that whale. Thanks for sharing this!
Thank you! I hope so too for Thea.
It's wild how accurate it is in its small details. Fight on, lil mermaid
