I sat in the support group room, everyone staring at me, like I'm some kind of alien. "We have a new member today." The instructor says. "Alice?" I stand up and wave. "Tell us about yourself." He tells me. I take a deep breath. "You never know what anxiety feels like unless you have it. I believe everyone has anxiety, some worse than others. Anxiety, is very common in the United States. But, I, Alice Prevario. Have BiPolar disorder and severe anxiety. This is kind of just a little now you know, so you don't get confused. These are my journal entrees. I live in sunny California near San Francisco. I get harassed and bullied for being very skinny. My life is falling apart, so, I tried to take my life on the Golden Gate Bridge. But, now I'm here." I stop for a moment. I look at everyone at me, and starting to freak out. "Sorry." I say. "Please, continue." The instructor says. I look at my pale white skin, and my brown hair at my shoulders, so, I continue with my life story.
