I'm 12-16 With a Mental Illness

Story #13

Age:13 

Mental illnesses: Depression, and Anxiety Living with a mental illness is hard 11 and it's not getting better so far basically all my friends that know have at one point called me a fake said that I cut for attention they don't even understand what it's like living like this. I'm basically nervous and scared all the time I'm scared to talk to my own friends cause I don't want to say something wrong and lose them. Depression is not a choice. It's not as simple as be happy or stop being sad. I felt like no one understood what it's like to be live this way until I started to read the fighter series on Wattpad they really helped me. I didn't feel so alone anymore things actually got a little better these books changed my life they made me think I'm a whole new way about everything that's happening. They made me realize that recovery is possible. That's my story
