I'm writing this as I went through hell as a kid too, starting at age 11 and now I'm at age 18. In that time I went through severe depression, losing my best friend (she found a new best friend), my mom and step dad's divorce, a distant father, body issues, abuse, breakups, and fights with my mom that made me feel as if life was worthless.
I haven't used wattpad in a few years, but I came back to look for a certain fic and realized due to comments how many of yall are depressed. This book is for those people. Tips and Tricks on how I got through stuff and how it may help you.
If a single person reads this and feels even a bit better, I'll have done what I came to do. I want to be the person that I needed back then.
I will talk in comments, and DM if you need to talk or ask for advice. I WILL NEVER ASK FOR PERSONAL PICS, REAL NAMES, LOCATIONS, ETC. I do want yall to feel better, but I am a stranger on the internet, and I cannot take the place of a real therapist or friend.

From The Heart
Do you know the times when you want to say something, but can't? Or the times when you are sad and need someone to give you a hug? The times your worst enemy hugs your boyfriend? Or the times you are so angry you punch a locker and have to pay to get it repaired? Well with writing my thoughts, passions, anger triggers, enemies, love, hatred, even happiness out for people. Makes me feel like someone can relate to me and I can impact them in any simple or complex way they deem fit. I write because I can and I become free with every word written from my mind, every letter and messed up grammar I have accidentally committed to butchering every time I write. I may not make a difference, heck, I may not even have a lot of people who read but those who do read when I write about how I thought up a story plot or something for my best friend, they will always make me feel like I'm making the difference because someone actually read what I thought at a certain time and day and maybe even listened. That's what makes me feel wanted and happy like I can do something other than run my stubborn mouth and have a mother hen personality. That is what will continue as I write. fortunately, the thing is no one can take it away either, and that my readers are what makes the mind a great thing.Complete
Random Thoughts
This is not a story, but it can be your story. These are random thoughts of the author but it can also connect to your thoughts. My original plan was to create a story. It can be a teen story, romance , friendship or for youth. But then, I came to a realization that there are so many stories in wattpad, Therefore I decided to create something , some random thoughts that will reflect your thoughts and experiences. Maybe you are having a hard time, And I hope that this will help your healing process. Disclaimer!!! (Book Cover is not mine, credit to the rightful owner. Typo and grammatical errors are expected) Friendly Reminder: These are personal thoughts of the author and do not intend to change the views of the readers rather to inspire and motivate. PS: This is the second published I made for this book. The first was on my first account but sadly I cannot open it because I deleted the email that I used before. It was under my account (arkey_bee).Complete

Finding Purpose (+18) ✔️
***this book contains suicidal thoughts and tendencies, may not be appropriate for younger audiences*** In which she looks for the purpose of life. Lily Carter's parents died in a car crash leaving her and Laura, girl was depressed long before her parents passed away and with all the problems turning up now, Lily felt more miserable - if that's even possible. With her journey to look for life's purpose and grab the small pinch of HOPE - which is ironically her second name -, will she finally snap at the pressure and finally end it all? or will a small light lit her darkened world of grief and loneliness? * "So you know. The little goth girl who gets bullied is indeed a mess. There's this mess in her head that eats her alive everyday isn't it? What to do now Kaden? Tell the whole neighborhood and recieve an award for taking out a crazy in this world?" I spit like vomit. His eyes warmed up as I finished, "Lily. It isn't like that" "What is it then? People stopped caring... they gave up, why aren't you?" I fought my tears. "Because I feel the need to care. Did Leigh hurt you? Did she hit you?" he finally noticed the unusual redness of my cheek. I don't like the way he told me he needed to care for me. I felt like an obligation, a responsibility that he is carrying and carrying leads to getting tired and when people gets tired, they give up. I don't want them to give up on me. But they will, so it's good not to make them care for me in the first place. "I never needed anyone. I stopped needing anyone before, why start now?" I uttered the words again. Why? There is nothing to fight for. No mama. No papa. No sister to love me. No one. So why would I waste my life and the time of others to fix what is already broken - and someone who doesn't want to be fixed? If I may add. Maybe I gave up. No, scratch that. I gave up a long time ago - when my parents died, my hope and purpose went away with them.Complete
The Mad House Is Where I Belong
I like inflicting pain. Not on others but on myself. Some people would call me depressed but I'm not. If anything the pain makes me happy. I started "self harming" at the mere age of nine. Or at least, that's what she called it. My therapist, I mean. She ended up giving me a life time supply of antidepressants and some shitty advice. I'm now eighteen, rotting in jail, and awaiting my death sentence. This is my story and if I'm quite honest, you don't want to hear it. +++ awards: ➵ Winner, Short Story Category, "Summer Book Awards" @Capybara100 ➵ Overall Winner, "Summer Book Awards" @Capybara100 status: ➵ started - 19/08/17 ➵ finished- 07/11/18 note: ➵ Please don't copy me.

Emotional Writings Dump
Sooooo this is gunna be out here, my first Wattpad booky. Y'all just a warning, (even tho you can probably tell by the description already) I write, A LOT so if you're bored and got some time, come on down! Disclaimer, this booky boi has no plot or order buuutttt maybe there's a time line? This book is pretty much a dump of writings that I make for myself from time to time. I don't often put a date with them but it is what it is. Some of them were during the summer before my first year of high school. Others are just strong feelings I've faced at one point in this year. Lots are probably just me writing about when I had someone I loved in my life. Keep in mind any new chapters or addings are probably here because I'm facing that junk in life rn. But yeah, lots of writings are kinda sad so if you're not looking to be in a sad child mood then I recommend a skips on this bookaru. I'm not on Wattpad to much, only to check on my fan girl things, (but I'm often in dead fandoms) and look for cool comics n stuff, so this book might get ignored until I find something to complain about in like, five months. Y'all this a big warning, I didn't really spell check this child and I'm kinda cringing right now, realizing how stupid this book is gunna be but my notes are getting full. Also most of these might be incomplete cuz even on a rampage, my fire just burns out and suddenly I get writers block (but mostly it's probably cuz I write loads of these at like three am). I'll probably add some little authors note at the end because I'm scared and because these are like, extremely personal. (Fr they probably got the names of real human peoples in them but no one will ever find mine booketh). Another Disclaimer; this book is not intended in anyway to be of use or of advice to anyone about anything, this book is pretty much just storage.... I started this book baby on : 9/4/18 An I done finished this o boi on : ion know yet, probably never. Sike it be done on : 9/23/18Complete

Those writings are going to be very blunt and truthful. I do not sugar coat anything. It's your decision if you want to take it or leave it. That is up to you. Enjoy reading! Stay healthy and drink water!
