This is a story of my life, it's a true story although I've changed the names of people. This is the only way I know how to get everything out that's building up deep inside of me, even after countless counselling sessions. My life has been a huge struggle, a battle with crippling depression, severe anxiety, love and loss, heartbreak and losing myself somewhere along the way. But somehow being strong enough to share my story in the hope I can inspire people going through similar things to never give up. No matter how hard things may seem, they will get better!
For some reason people don't like to talk about mental illness. Mental illness is real and needs to be taken seriously. Everyday there are hundreds of thousands of people fighting battles and trying their best to stay strong. People are afraid to seek the help they deserve. I decided to speak up and be the voice for those who are afraid to. This is my story with having anxiety.
