Adolescence. I suppose many people would consider this time their most memorable, momentous, and marvelous. Memorable and momentous, yes, however my adolescent years are rarely looked upon with such a gay word as marvelous.

Nonetheless, I have never in my entire life looked back on this time with a smile. I do have short snippets of fond memories, but those are quickly taken over by macabre images. Many of my peers, millennials, as many call us, have suffered the pain of self-harm, failed and succeeded suicide attempts, rape, substance addiction and abuse, mental illnesses, and any morbid crime seen on the television.
