This is a little short story that I had to write for English this year (2013). While the assignment was to use a range of literary features stemmed from a stimulus sheet, I used this story to express many social issues: insecurities, teenage heartbreak, self harm and depression. I hope that this story will help to raise awareness for mental illness :) Please enjoy! (THIS STORY DOES NOT SET OUT TO ENCOURAGE SELF DESTRUCTIVE BEHAVIOUR OF ANY KIND AND URGES ANY SUFFERING A MENTAL ILLNESS TO SEEK HELP)

Outcast
Heads up this story is pretty old and kinda bad so I don't rlly recommend reading😬 Anyway ~~~~ "P-please, just leave m-me alone," I whisper, mentally slapping myself for stuttering. "Oh? Does the outcast want to talk?" she asks. --- For Jamie, being a senior in high school isn't easy for them. Bullies treat them like trash everyday, and it's even worse when you're the odd one out. Literally, being non-binary in a Christian school. Until a few nice people start reaching out...maybe it won't be so bad... ‼️CAUTION//TW: CONSTANT MENTIONS SELF HARM, SUICIDE, GRIEF, AND BULLYING‼️Complete

Dollhouse
this is a story I wrote a while back based on what goes on in an abused child's home, the dollhouse as Melanie calls it. It's not cut into chapters, but does have stopping points. It's very emotional and depressing. Serious trigger warnings. So please, be careful. Take care of yourself + stay alive. :) + + + Dedicated to all of my friends from Manchester. Thank you for sticking with me through the tough times and dealing with me, even when I was a crybaby.Complete
It All Started With A Lie
"Why did you do it?" he asked. "What are you talking about" I replied nervously I knew what he was talking about. I just had hope that it would've been something else. "The lie" he replied calmly while me on the other hand was shaking. I was nervous, guilty and I felt like crying. "I umm don't know" I murmur I honestly didn't know I closed my eyes hoping, praying that when I opened them this will all be a nightmare...Complete
Monsters Inside My Head
WARNING: Some pieces may contain triggers for those who struggle with any form of depression or self harm. Please read with caution. I will often rearrange the chapters in the way I see fit, so please be patient and keep that in mind. This is my first attempt at poetry. It will consist of shit that I've gone through/dealt with and ramblings from my screwed up mind. These works are purely fictional and not meant to be taken literally.Complete
