I'm a gorgeous, fabulous ginger who struggles with depression. Sometimes incorporating my feelings and experiences into my stories helps me to cope with my emotions. That being said, I don't think my stories are necessarily sad. In my mind they aren't stories about depression; they're stories about overcoming obstacles and finding joy and beauty in life. I hope they are as helpful to you as they are to me in that they put emotions into words, but also remind us that there is hope.
