Drawing Depression

Drawing Depression will be a story based off of my life. (Read author's note)

Shelby (me) is the most depressed girl anyone has every met. The people who have met her don't know because she hides everything with a fake smile and mask. No one sees her pain or hurt from everything that has happened to her.

Drawing Depression is all I know. Drawing takes away the pain. Pain of verbal abuse, pain of bullying, pain of hate, pain from everything. I sit there in the night and cry. No one knows the pain. No one knows what happens to me.

Drawing Depression will range from the drawing of the blade across my skin to the drawing of the pencil across my page. Not all my depression drawings describe the pain. Some describe what I want to feel.
