Today was not the best day. It started off alright; I went to church like I normally do each Sunday, got home and had lunch with my family, then went off to study and play Pokemon. The bad part was a few hours ago when I found out that I bombed a Latin test that I took last week. I attend a pretty high-pressure school where grades are super important to your quality of life there, so this really, really sucked. The thing is that I thought I knew almost everything on that test. Damn. So, like I do every so often, I broke down into tears. I’ve been having some very dark thoughts lately, partially due to my school life, also do to some anxiety I’ve developed over the years. For the first time ever, I tried to reach out for help. I contacted the suicide hotline (though I was just depressed, not suicidal), and the counselor that I talked to sent me a link to this website. I’ve joined some groups which I think apply to me, so hopefully this place will help me better myself. If anyone happens upon this blog, I want you to know that I am always here to talk to anyone that needs it. See ya.
