Serious Topic

So here is a story on a serious topic. It isn't a normal thing for me. The point of this is to share my experience and raise awareness. The topic I want to speak about is mental illness. This includes, Paranoia, Anxiety, ADHD, Depression, PTSD, Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder and any other mental condition. I only have personal experience in a few mental conditions like depression, anxiety, ADHD and paranoia. I will be sharing a brief and very vague story about my friend.

I have a friend who we will call SM (for her first and last name). SM has anxiety, depression and trust issues. She wants to kill her most of the time. I didn't know anything about SM until a few months ago. Until then she seemed like your run of the mill teenage girls. Never would I suspect that she had depression or anxiety or trust issues. She hardly told anything of importance to her friends. Soon we started talking. We connected and are good friends. She is working on dealing with depression.

I know that was extermely short and vague but that was about all I care share about her and her situation. All she allowed me too share.

Mental Illness can happen to anyone and everyone. That  is where I am going with this story.

Anyways I just want every with mental illnesses to know that you are not alone. People care about you. People pray for you. People love you. People struggle like you. All hope is not lost. Don't give up. Keep fighting. Remember that you have a special place in my heart.
