What is the shadowland? The shadowland is the dark space depression puts people in. This is not your cliché story of a girl with depression who meets some guy who makes it better. We live in a world where this usually doesn't happen. This book explains what it's like to actually have mental illnesses. It will be a combination of short stories, poems and posts.
I hope that this book helps make people aware of the struggles of mental illness and stops them from brushing it aside as insignificant and unimportant. Those of you who do don't understand the mental anguish and pain it causes. Of can't be expressed in words but read on to get a small fragment if an idea of what it is like.
I also hope it helps those with mental illnesses to realise that they are not alone and hope it somehow helps them. Remember, even though you may not realise it, you are some of the strongest people. You have to deal with so much every day. Not everyone would be able to survive through what you put up with on a daily basis. I hope that this book can become some kind of support network for those who need it.
Stay strong.
