Depression was nothing new to one Murdock Brooks--he's been dealing with it since he was 16.
He realized a while back that no one besides his family and his best friend's family cares about him--but it doesn't bother him as much as it should.And although he appreciates his mother's care ("Take your meds Duck" and "Duck, you need to get more sleep"), he's suffocating.
But his senior year is coming to a close and he has no idea on what he should be doing when it comes to major, life-changing, decisions.
The only thing he knows for a fact is that he just needs to get out.
And so he does.

So as I sit in this circle of fuck ups, I realize just how different I am from them. I didn't attempt suicide because my mother was a crack addict who didn't want me. My father wasn't abusive. I didn't have a sibling die in a car accident. I was never really bullied either. I attempted suicide because, for the first time in years, I thought I had found something that could make me feel again... and after not feeling much at all for far too long, perhaps I went a bit overboardComplete
