“This is the worst feeling ever, and I really hope you guys can help me. I mean, I love you all so much… When I post this, if I ever do, please help me.”
Phoebe admitted that she uses TikTok to seek advice about breaking up and how to cope with her grief because she doesn’t know what to do.
“I just feel like I can’t breathe, I feel so alone,” she continued. “And I never thought I’d be that girl sitting here crying and talking to myself, or my TikTok, like who the f**k am I?
“Maybe it’ll make me feel better. It’s been eight days and they’ve been the worst eight days of my life.”
In the caption, Phoebe added that she was “not sure” if she would ever post the vulnerable clip, but decided to share it because “it’s hard sometimes for [her] to go to… friends and family when [she’s] sad’.
“If you’re going through a breakup, or have been through one, and it didn’t even end badly for you,” she continued through tears.
“If you still love each other very much and things just weren’t meant to be… Tell me how I can get through this, because I could use all the help I can get.”
Phoebe concluded her caption on a more positive note, expressing hope that she will “be in a better frame of mind soon.”
