I open the door and harsh, rusty groans fill the air. Stepping through, I close it slowly, trying not not to be heard. I step slowly to the edge, taking my time. Once at the edge I kneel on the floor, the loose gravel turnings to dust under my weight. I place my hands on the heightened edge and peer over, watching cars zoom past and small clumps of people walking beneath me. Oblivious to what I'm about to do. I stand, wiping my sweaty palms on the sides of jeans. I place one foot on the platform, steadying myself, then follow it with the other. I close my eyes, take a deep breath, and... WARNING. THIS BOOK CONTAINS SUICIDAL THOUGHTS, DEPRESSION AND EATING DISORDERS. I don't mean to offend anyone who has suffered from any of these things, this is fiction. I don't have any experience of these things apart from seeing my friends go through it, so I'm sorry if I get anything wrong.

Laid upon the pages of this book is a story. This is an autobiography. I struggled with writing this and, as you will soon understand, though I knew how to write it, writing it and thinking about it was difficult. I have not labeled the chapters in hopes that you will read all the way through. You may understand me a little more if you do so, but, on the same note, you may end up hating me. I do not know what your reaction will be, but I will allow your opinion of me. I give you full permission to judge me, only when you read everything. This is on my struggles with mental illness, traumatic events, my opinions, my thoughts, my feelings; this is a tour of my mind. Be warned, it's dark and haunted. But I felt it important for me to write this, so maybe I can overcome it. Thank you for picking this text to enlighten you. I am not the smartest, nor am I the wisest, but I will do my best to paint a delicate image in your mind by how I string together my semblant words.
