Came here to make a similar comment having had a similar experience.
Judging how “easy” someone might have it based solely on age is a ridiculous thing to do.
Mental illness and or abusive parents or siblings (E: or as someone else mentioned: grief) don’t suddenly stop existing when you’re on holiday, if anything, being away from your own safe space and comfort zone, and in a strange place you don’t know surrounded by people you might not even be able to speak to, never mind ask for help, and your abusers potentially feeling more free than they would at home, can make everything significantly worse.
There’s plenty of shit to criticise in the world we live in, emo kids reaaaaly shouldn’t be one of them.
