I was always the favourite child. It was me. I was doing well, I had everything and life was perfect before one little mishap brought everything down altogether.

6 years later I'm not in a better place. In fact it's even worse now and to top things off, right now I'm in my down stage and it doesn't look like I'm getting out of here anytime soon. And to be honest I'm not even trying because I'm in it too deep. What's the point in putting effort if I won't make it out unscathed?

I love life right now everything is beautiful, I have amazing grades and I play the violin and I'm on the school football team. On top of that- not that it matters to me- all the girls love me. But I have an amazing girlfriend- Ashely.

I hate life now. I've basically put my life on hold while I die behind closed doors. I dropped out of the band, I no longer play for the football team and Ashely- well when I dropped out she went after the next best thing- my brother. On top of all this my grades are slipping no matter how much I try. I'm failing everything and everyone including myself.

Who would've thought the star child would be failing? I guess I'm no longer the star everyone once loved.
