Hi guys what's up? I want to get back into writing some short stories so I'm currently drafting some stuff that I may or may not publish. Wattpad was a very important part of my life for almost 5-6 years. I first joined this site when I was in grade elementary school, I was ten or so. I had just moved and was extremely depressed with no recourse and this site filled a void in my life. I latched onto reading and writing like it would Ava eme from something. In middle school my mental health deteriorated significantly, I attempted suicide twice in grade seven. Come grade eight I came out as a lesbian, then again a couple months later as transgender. In grade nine i attended an alternative school but struggled to keep up my attendance. I failed two classes and spent six weeks as a student in a mental health based school in the psych ward of a hospital. In grade ten I switched schools to one that was closer to me, I attend and made some friends but early into my second semester I stopped going altogether. I refused to leave my bed to do anything but eat or play video games. I had made some very good online friends and i devoted all my time to them. Around the end of grade ten my parents decided to send me to live in a group home, i hated the idea but it helped. I spent my grade 11 year finishing my grade 10 credits. I'm technically in grade 1w now, i should be graduating and going to college for something soon but I babe to take an extra year. I want to take advantage of the fact that I'm in a better place, relatively mentally stable, in consistent therapy and medicated, to write. I'm also considering writing a bit about my story and experiences with mental health, particularly what it's like being in a residential home. I'm not really sure what I'm getting at here but I guess if you guys are interested in hearing about any of this, tell me, I guess?
