Alexander Jones was 17 when things started going wrong. Then the trigger event happened. 

Now Alex is almost 20 and he's definitely still dealing with the fallout of what happens when psychosis ruins your life. And what's the point of getting better, when nothing will ever be the same again? What's the point of getting better if he can't even tell the difference between what's real and what's fake? What's the point of getting better when he was a perfect glass child and the official schizophrenia diagnosis came just a smidge too late?

How would you define depression? Alex knows, all he's ever felt his entire life was suffering, pain, sadness like he was cursed by the gods to never have a good life, to never feel that very word "happiness". Raised in an abusive home, Alex gives up on life, but then, he meets hope, hope in form of Connor McCoy. But fate has other plans. If only they knew how much words could hurt, if only they knew it could increase the volume of your demons voices. they were like daggers in the heart, they destroyed the soul, they created more demons. It all started with Alex , and then the people who abandoned him, condemned him, ruined him, faced their own demons. Three boys; different demons. They say Guilt is like poison, it kills you slowly until there is nothing left. Maybe everything would have been better if they were not assholes.
