diary family illness stroke

A New Kind of Normal is the story of my step-dad, how his life changed in a second and by default changed ours too. He became ill one night and everything we knew to be normal about life altered forever. It was suggested by the Doctors that we keep a diary to explain to him later what he had missed. The road we had to walk wasn't pleasant or easy, nor does it have a definite destination but we walked it anyway. I hope to bring hope to others who find themselves identifying with this story...

Unexplainable Experiences (2019) by Max_The_Trashcan

These are things that I have been keeping record of for... various reasons. I'm told not to share this but screw him he's not my father. It's my life and my experiences. I suppose you can call this horror but the most scariest part about it is that it's all real. No fakery. I only wish it was fake. So do yourself a favor and... enjoy what you have before it disappears. You have been warned... Welcome to my Hell.

Angela by Meowler88

COMPLETED- Angela has suffered from mental depression and disorientation ever since her mum died, she is constantly abandoned and nobody is ever there for her. But when a terrible accident happens causing Angela to permanently lose her sight, the only ones she had left walk away. Except for one, a boy, he is the one who doesn't care about Angela's blindness or depression, he is the one she trusts. Slowly but surely a relationship forms between the two, but the relationship leads to dark times and simply makes the crucial decision Angela has been trying to make for years since her mum's death, to live or to die, harder. THIS IS A FICTIONAL MENTAL HEALTH BASED STORY, ANY SIMILARITIES OR RESONANCES TOWARDS ACTUAL EVENTS ARE ENTIRELY COINCIDENTAL. THE MENTAL HEALTH IS NOT MEANT IN ANY WAY TO BELITTLE OR DISCRIMINATE PEOPLE SUFFERING FROM IT. IT IS MEANT TO GIVE YOU AN INSIGHT INTO WHAT IT IS LIKE TO HAVE MENTAL HEALTH.

Perfect Lies. by brokenvibesxoxo

A normal kid, a normal family, and a normal life, a perfect living. Shay, a normal boy with a caring mother and a perfect life, is supposed to be that right? But what if he never had a mother? What if it was all lie? and................. What if it was not normal? • • • • • • Why did you kill her? I asked the dark-haired man angrily but he only nodded his head calmly, "you didn't even hesitate to do this? despite being a cop and his husband?" I asked this time more furiously but he only ignored me and walked away. My head was filled with dizziness and my eyes went blurry in front of me, I had no sense of what to do next, the dizziness was so dominating that I lied on the road in between the street and closed my eyes.......

When Darkeness Breathes...(Contest) by AelfwynnMacGregor

How can I explain what has happened? How a lifetime of pain and disability was far more sinister and darke than even I could have imagined? I am only now discovering the truth, and I will share it with you, page by page from my journal. Do you have the courage to uncover the truth? Will you make it to the end with me? Lets see... (This story is dedicated to everyone who has ever felt different or misunderstood. We are all equal♡) This is the condensed version for the #TNTHorrorContenst entry.

Wave (Book 2) by Anniezie

I had survived the first. That was then; this is now. The blindfold of so many pills slowly died away and first though my finger then my head, a passion, a hurt and a need filled me as every moment was consumed with words; every breath with wisps of ink. But they were not all captured and somewhere in the deep abyss of living, lies the unspoken, almost unfelt feelings of decades in months. This is the half-empty account off all those nights from December through into the new year and the end of March. ...I pains me to share it. But it also makes it just not my problem anymore and that is something I long for- freedom and peace. Please note that all grammatical and linguistic, as well as those in punctuation and spelling or placing of words were intentional. If you LIKE this and want me to write a commentary on each poem and picture (as in my previous collection Apfel), please show me in comments and votes :) PLEASE DO NOT COPY any of the poetry or pictures.

Fix Me, I'm Broken by Ana11e1y

Walking into an empty house is normal to me. I guess I got tired of saying 'I'm home' when nobody is home to reply. It wasn't always like this. I remember when our family was close. Now we don't see each other any more. We don't talk to each other. We don't eat with each other. We don't ACKNOWLEDGE each other. This all happened after my 'Mother' killed herself. My father blames me. This is my story about how I learned to not count on anyone else but myself. I'm broken. I'm used. No one can fix me. But when the New Boy in town tries to fix me, everything will change. Good change or Bad change, I don't know. Only time will tell. I want to enter this story in the #Wattys2015 please help me out and vote and comment on my story. I'll really appreciate it!!! #Wattys2015 COPYRIGHTED Â© 2014 BY Anallely ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Â®

𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐖𝐄 𝐇𝐈𝐃𝐄 by khaos-

an almost decade old story. * "one tragedy changed their lives." a story with dialogues and minimal description, in which a boy ends up in the hospital after a car accident and his friend slowly collapsing under the weight of his tortured mind. but what actually happened that one fateful night and what other secrets will be unraveled? * two main male pov's, recognizable through italics and normal text. a story written unlike any other. i hope you'll find comfort in it just as much as i have. be aware that this is a realistic story. * slow-burn start, but it picks up. don't let the number of chapters fool you; the average reading time for each is less than a minute . i came up with the story of the two friends when i was still quite young and i'm by no means a writer, so it deeply apologize if it sucks ass. feel free to vote and comment or point out any spelling mistakes or confusing paragraphs. it needs some editing and possibly some small changes or added chapters for clarity and better character development, but as for now, this first completed story will do. original story: around 2014. first upload: 2020. re-upload: 2023.

Evolution by andshesmiles

There are a lot of things you don't really think about until they happen to you. Take rape, for instance. I always thought, "That won't happen to me. I have a boyfriend. I trust him. He would never take advantage of me like that..." I couldn't have been more wrong. Love in this day and age is often confused for manipulation and abuse. The warning signs are here. The things we say will tell us everything that is wrong. You are worth more than what you think you are. It's not your fault. If they tell you otherwise, get out. Burn the bridge. Always remember someone is waiting for you to walk into their life. Someone needs you. Someone loves you. Getting away from all of the wrong people and finding the right ones could save you. I can promise you right now that it saved me. These are the journal entries and selected poems from my first experience of love that left a unpleasant taste in my mouth- quite literally. I am putting this out for the whole world to see because I hope everyone will learn from my experience. People can see. We have no excuses to continue living our lives in ignorance. ...WARNING... HARMFUL THEMES INCLUDING MENTION OF SUICIDE, SELF HARM, AND RAPE. THIS HAS EXPLICIT CONTENT. RECOVERY AND AWARENESS IS THE PURPOSE OF SHARING. DO NOT READ IF THESE THEMES ARE OFFENSIVE OR HARMFUL TO YOU.

"DREW" by aningwrites31

How would you feel if one day you knew you have a rare disease? Would you choose to get through it alone and push away the one you love? The love you've been waiting for your whole life. A kind of love that is perfect but came at the worst part of your life. This is a story of a girl and the way she would overcome all her insecurities brought by a rare disease she never thought she would have. How would the people that she would meet help and deal with her? Is it beyond her reality? Everything? This is not your typical love story. It's about love, music, family and friendship. And Drew? She's unusual"

Keeping Up With the Sammy by SamanthaMichelle0

Hello! My name is Sam and, surprise, I write! Instead of throwing another common Wattpad teen romance your way, I decided to use this commonly used website as a journal for everyone to judge me! So if you want to read about my weird crazy life or just wanna dive into something a bit relaxing to take away the stresses of your day, I welcome you here to my little corner. Snuggle up and enjoy 💜 And as always, Stay Lovely ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 09/24 Hey, it's me Sam again, but four years later from what you just read this thing is essentially a blog, let's be honest, but hey, maybe if you're into that we can have a laugh together. And if you're about to swipe out this because this isn't very Wattpad aesthetic, I understand, I hope you have a great day, and again, Stay Lovely
