Hey, I'm Laney and I'm from Connecticut. I am lesbian, depressed, and I have a condition called misophonia - basically, I am very sensitive to certain sounds and can't always control my reactions to these sounds. When I was in 7th grade, my depression was at its worst. If was so bad that every night, before I went to bed, I would take my pocket knife and cut my wrists. I'm not going to go into detail on what happened, but one night, it was particularly bad and I almost actually died. I will forever carry that scar with me as a memory of what I have survived.
