Hello everyone, I need help in finding a story and I would greatly appreciate if you read this. It's a story where a boy goes to a boarding school and befriends this hyper friend, a huge man (I think they compared him to a bear but could be wrong), then a quiet boy, and his roommate. His roommate has a title that the rest of the school wants and I think it was him being called the lion? Two major scenes is the boy supposed to be running like 12 laps but has asthma and can't do it so his roommate does it and a camping trip where they had a scavenger hunt and they had a one person tent so they ended up sleeping in the cabin. If you know anything about this book please let me know!

So again no one reads these but I’m going to rant here on some topics that like I don’t know if I want this to be read or not. 
          
          *trigger warning for mental illnesses*
          
          So one in middle school and early high school I struggled with depression, self harm, anxiety and anorexia. Yeah, I was a messed up kid. 
          
          But like tenth grade hit and since then (now a sophomore in college) I’ve been feeling less like this and I wish that there was an off switch. Cause I went to my counselor and told her I felt symptoms of self harm and I’ve been starving myself and crap and she looked bored and I felt so needy for attention and stupid because there are people who are worse off than me. 
          
          But like it’s gotten so bad that people at my work notice that I skip meals and if I do eat something it’s small and my clothes are so loose and fitting better and I feel great and it sucks that I see myself counting calories and hating my body for all this crap and I don’t want to be this way so I keep trying to talk to people without drawing a lot of attention to myself because I remember what I used to be like but it seems no one cares. And I hate this and I being this way.  
          
          I just want to be normal. 
          
          I was going to talk about another topic but I have decided against it cause this is already wayyyy too heavy

@capturethememories well, I read this.  Nothing I say will really help, but I will say there was a time I was so far down into my depression and anxiety that I almost killed myself.  I felt guilty for being depressed because I didn't really have anything to be depressed about.  It was only years later when I came out of it that I realized it doesn't matter if I don't have it as bad as someone else.  Pain is pain.  It hurts.  That is legit.  Someone told me once that depression lies to you and that rang really true to me.  I couldn't see it when I was in the middle of it, but I did when I finally came out of it.  That doesn't mean I don't struggle anymore.  I still do and probably always will but at least I understand myself a little better now.  It sounds like you can recognize your own signs and I think that is very important.  I don't know you or the people around you, but if people at work notice you are missing meals, at least they notice enough to care.  I know it's easy for me to say you don't need to feel stupid for wanting attention and a lot harder to put into practice, but your feelings are legitimate.  Your pain and desire for attention is legitimate.  Also, no one is normal.  We just all have different things we are hiding and different masks we are wearing.  That probably doesn't help you at all, but I just wanted you to know that I read this

Even though no one reads these. Would anyone read a story of a bad ass chick who goes on adventures fighting fucking dragons and shit and has a ton of friends and admirers but doesn’t have a love interest BECAUSE SHE IS A FUCKING ACE QUEEN!!! 
          Because I want to write a story like that and I want to know if it will be read
