Is it really sadness if its never been happiness?
Is it really getting worse if its never gotten better?
Is it really going to get better if your broken beyond repair?
Is it really suicide if you're already dead inside?

Finn's life has gone from bad to worse. At 17, his family moved from a small town in Canada, to Pennsylvania, meaning a new school, new friends, and new enemies. Finn comes across as an outspoken, sarcastic typical teenager; drugs, alcohol, and smoking are his best friends, along with that shiny piece of sharp metal. But the thing with broken clocks is that you can always tell when they stopped ticking; with people its not always that simple. 
Piper is outgoing, yet soft spoken. She's a bit of a bad girl, minus the drugs, smoking and drinking. She's always down to have a good time, even if it means getting into trouble. 
So when the two teens world collide, things start to change. Hearts are broken, feelings are scarred, skin is sliced, and love is in the air.

We All Fall Down. (Jack Barakat of All Time Low) by StoryOfALonelyJane

I wrote this a long time ago, when I was 14/15, a time when self harm was something that seemed to just be everywhere in my life. I apologise to anyone who read this before I put this notice here, but I'm pretty sure in every chapter there is some sort of mention of mental illness/self harm. I know I could just take the story down, but it was one of the first ever stories I wrote that I liked and completed, and although I admit now it's not great, it shows progress. And progress is everything. Baby steps. Sorry again. This is an official TRIGGER WARNING. Emma is depressed. She's just been dumped and is being bullied. Can Jack save her or will she break his heart? I own everything in this story apart from lyrics used and bands mentioned, the storyline is my own and I'd appreciate it if you didn't take it or any element of my writing.

The Bad Boy Saved Me by Pentatonix21

Do you ever wonder what life would be like if it were a movie? Or some sappy romance novel that you wish your life could be like but it's not? Sometimes you may even get to caught up in the fictional world that you don't realise it IS fictional. Then when you do realise life isn't what you convinced yourself it would be, there is only one possible outcome. Depression. Which may lead to anxiety, self-harm, low self esteem, and worst of all, losing the people you love. Life works in weird ways. Not just for you but for others too. Take Cassidy Rivers for example. Her life is far from perfect. No parents, over protective big brother, few friends, and Asher Norman, the bad boy who won't stop picking on her. Could life get any worse for Cassidy?

Anxiety by Pegascripyure

Thea Salvatore. She never thought her life could get so complicated, in such a short amount of time, in one situation continued on. After losing people closets to her, and betrayed by another, she closes herself off, focusing mainly on school. This causes more problems than solutions. Her anxiety comes out in full force, sending her into multiple attacks at any given time, during school, after school, in the middle of the night. She's so anxious, so nervous, so afraid that she's going to be hurt, or worse, killed. Then a foreign exchange student moves in with her best friend, and befriends her. Her life changes, she changes back into her old self. She comes out of her shell, her mind shifting off all the stressful times, and past times, and focuses on this new guy in her life. A guy she desperately wants to keep, but wants to also keep safe. They go through twists and turns, but in the end, doesn't happiness always win?

Everything Changes by Upallnight19

Aria had a simple life, she had her friends, her brother, and her parents. At the time she thought life couldn't get any better; minus the guy she was in love with was having a hard time noticing she's the one. But when tragedy strikes, she doesn't know how to deal with it. Losing someone close to her and the guilt that eats away at her heart. How do you deal with it? The life she had known was gone. The pain feels like drowning. Though putting your life together is hard when you keep finding out people aren't who they say they are. Who could possibly help her keep her head above water? Someone she least expected? Could he be the one to save her, before it all becomes too much? Ryder didn't leave much falsehood to rumors. A complete playboy. He didn't have much he cared about in life anymore, at least, other than his friends. They were the only ones who knew his dark secrets, the mystery that hid in his eyes. That's the way he liked it, usually keeping to himself, not giving a shit what anyone thought about him. When Aria walks in his life, things get shaken up. Now, life starts getting a little more interesting.

Broken Promise by Chapter1991

- Nessa - I'm used to Phoenix being my brother Finn's cocky best friend-the guy who always ruins my fun whenever I find someone interesting.

Suddenly, we're spending more time together, and he's not as much of an arrogant jerk as I thought. The lines between annoyance and attraction are blurring, and it's confusing. Maybe he's not just Finn's best friend anymore. - Phoenix - I've had feelings for Nessa since the moment we met, but I buried them deep because of Finn. After I found her that night, unconscious, everything I'd pushed aside came rushing back. I tried to play it cool, but being around her now makes it harder to keep my distance. She's not just Finn's sister-she's Nessa, and my resolve is slipping. I'm not sure how long I can keep pretending I don't care.
