Surviving Depression

Here I sit in this dark room.

Alone.

Wrists covered in warm, dark blood.

Waiting to be saved from this hell hole of a life...

------------------------------------------------------

Meet Willow. A girl suffering from depression and abuse from her father. Her life had changed drastically when her mother died. She was ten years old when it happened. About a year later, her father began getting drunk constantly and doing drugs. He also began abusing her.

Willow still has hope for the day that her father will finally stop his addictions and beg for her forgiveness. She still has hope that her father will treat her like a human being once more.

But like every human being, she still has doubts.

Doubts that she will never get her father back. Doubts that she'll never have the courage to stand up to her father or contact the police.

But when she meets a boy named Jeremy, will all of that change?

Will he be able to help her?

Will Jeremy and Willow start to develop feelings for each other?

Will Willow be able to handle those feelings?

Willow knows that there must be some hope for her life to change, but she also knows not to keep her hopes up. Nothing good has ever come out of that.
