Megan Helms. That's who I am. Everyone thinks I am all stable up in my head just because of how I dress and my confidence. But in reality I am just as fragile as a piece of glass. I don't understand why but everytime I look at myself and think of the person I want to become I get depressed. I don't see myself passing the age of 17 either. An overwhelming sense of lonliness begins to take over me. Something deep down wants to go and the darkness begins to flourish. The thoughts, the hunger, the darkness it all just wants out. The same goes for some of my peers. At least their story is finally going to be told. 

They're going to tell you things and their feelings. Trust me you will never forget it. They will tell you things that will stay with you because the things they are going through cut deep. 

Bryan Mendoza. Dave Rodriguez. The SinClaire brothers. My dear friend Katherine McCree. And Patricia Jones. They have all had reasons to be the way they are. It doesn't mean that what they have done is good or bad. Its just what they've done and what they have been through. 

Bryan Mendoza takes a liking on manipulation and abuse. Dave Rodriguez begins to realize he's in a toxic relationship. Elliott SinClaire is a victim of revenge nudes. Max SinClaire doesn't know where he stands with his sexuality. Katherine McCree begins to go down a rabbit hole of drugs and partying, which eventually will take her down if she doesn't change. Patricia Jones is a body conscious transgender teen who is trying to find her place in the world while also diving into her sexuality and self love. Jenna Mendoza, the sister of Bryan who is an relationship with Brayden who is toxic to her as well, instead this time she might be, hmm let me just save that for later.

And for me, Megan Helms, I am dealing with my depression and why I feel this way even though everyone thinks I am happy. Yes I get suicidal thoughts but like its America aren't we all supposed to have those nowadays? I just know its hard to deal with especially when everyone assumes I am perfect when deep down I just hate it here and want to leave. I guess we just have to fight. But how long until the fight is over?

Maybe by the end of this story? Let's see.......
