Skylar Beirson diagnosed at 14 with bipolar disorder she struggles to know the difference from reality and her thoughts. Now 16 She's faced with to much to carry on her chest... Her best friend Max Wheeler died from a drunk driver, her parents are getting divorced, moving constantly,her disorder, and a brand new highschool.. Skylar's mother believes group therapy for mentally traumatized teens is Skylar's best option. Skylar already feels upside down is this the right choice for her?
What happens when Skylar is put through many situations, her emotions twisted and turned, and plus meeting Chase, a corrupted boy that knows exactly how Skylar feels. Is he worth her time? Is Skylar under to much pressure all the time that she can't handle the pressure anymore?
This story is written through her eyes and has mature scenes and use of language. Some chapters are plainly based on colors that she desribes as emotions she experiences heavily through her life due to her disorder.
NOTE: None of this is supposed to be directed negatively towards people with bipolar disorder this story is simply a fictional story based on some true actions. I am not saying every person with bipolar disorder is the exact same way as Skylar is in this story. This is just her thoughts (no she isn't real). I am not an expert nor do I know how it feels to have bipolar disorder, if I offend anyone please let me know. Anyone with bipolar disorder stay strong. Things will get better keep pushing through.🤍

The Impossibilities of Us
"What are these feelings you're talking about?!" he questions still yelling. "That I fucking like you, Daniella Jamie Grey!" I yell. "And I fucking like you too, Arabella May Jhonson!" he yells back. And the next thing I know is that we're no longer yelling. I hadn't even noticed that we went closer and closer to each other until I felt his breath on my lips and his nose nuzzling against mine as he bent to my level, his body towering over mine. I pull him to me and smash my lips onto his and it barely took a second for him to respond to it. ~~~~~ Arabella Jhonson and Daniel Grey unite. How they met each other, you may ask? They met each other because Arabella's cousin and Daniel's father are dating. There's definitely a spark when they met and the spark began to grow as they hung out with each other day by day, especially since they'll be living under the same roof for a little more than three weeks. Oh and not to mention that Daniel lives in Australia, away from Arabella, and he's only come to visit. But that's when the impossibilities come in to play. For one, aren't they technically going to be related if her cousin and Daniel's dad get married? And not only for that reason, but many other reasons that will be revealed as the story progresses. This'll be a story about two teens who go through struggles and a romance between them that seems more than likely to be impossible. Not only do other people get in the way of this romance, but their minds as well. Their minds that remind them why they can't work. And their minds that have their own fears. But can their romance find a way through it all? Or will it all just fall apart? Warning: Contains strong languageComplete

Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same.

As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.Complete
Logan
*TW* Contains topics and scenes of sexual assault, self-harm, abuse.* "You know you loved every second of it," I can feel the tears welling up as well as the anger building up within me. I stare at him for a while before I have to turn away from his hungry gaze. "Look I just came here to tell you that I forgive you for what you did back in Cali and I'll take you back," "You forgive me?" I yell. "I did nothing to you. You raped me! You fucking raped me! You have no right to come here and tell me that. You. Forgive. Me. You traumatized me. What you did to me tore me up inside and was eating away at me until I tried to kill myself. And when I told people they didn't believe me. I had to listen to so many people talk about how great a guy you were and how I clearly just regretted sleeping with you. You are a monster. You made me hate myself for something that was never my fault. You have caused me so much pain and suffering," I pause to take a deep breath. "So you don't get to come here to my school and tell me you forgive me. You don't get to make me feel bad about coming forward.
