This is a short story that depicts my experience with depression. The first chapter is from my point of view right before and during my depression. The second chapter is from the point of view of "him." He is my depression personified. The third chapter is what life has been like since I overcame my depression.
I hope that any who read this will feel that there is hope out there and that they are not alone.

Short Story Collection
So these are my short stories. They are ideas I've had that I thought would make good stories, but I don't love or have a solid idea for them to write a complete story. But I could continue writing them if I wanted to come up with something. Or if I truly don't want to, then too bad? Let your imagination run wild and allow it to form your own story? Also, if you see something wrong with my stories, grammatically or maybe just a way to make it better, please point it out. *Disclaimer - I do not own the rights of the image used in this cover*Complete

THE FORGOTTEN HOPE
THE FORGOTTEN HOPE AN: this book is crap. Honestly. I wrote it like years ago. The trope is shit and the spelling is even worse. Don't read it or at least, don't expect much :) ************* Second book First is: the forgotten hope ************* So tell me, Where shall I go? To the left, Where nothing's right? Or to the right, Where nothing's left? ************* "So what's going on" my best friend asked "Nothing" I lied "That's a lie" she searched for my eyes "How would you know" I look up to her "I know because you haven't smiled since that night" ************* 🚨WARNING🚨 1. This is a very cliche story 2. I'm dutch and this story is english. So if the grammar is wrong or the words are misspelled. That's why 3. this story is specific and had triggers for anyone with suicidal thoughts or depression.Complete

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
