I am writing this for the people who feel alone or left out, this is my story as a almost adult, but ive had a lot of diffrent experiences when it comes to mental health!
Ive had a rough childhood and when i was in grade 7 I started feeling really down and like there was no point in living and then that is when i got diagnosed with depression, things never felt like it was going to get bettr and i started resoring to Sh as a way of coping when i got into grade 9 ish, but i am now on the right meds that are working for me after may diffrent trial and error with them, and let me tell you something, life is getting better for me and things are looking up for me, i am graduating here this year in a month and some days (june 29th) if yo wouldve asked me back in grade seven if i thought i wouldve gotten to this point in life i wouldve said absolutley not but here i am doing much better.
the reason i am sharing part of my story with you guys is because I want to be able to help you guys realize you are not alone! I hope that this story inspires you guys. You are loved.
