My therapist told me I should try and join a support group that involves people like me. I wasn’t so sure about it then and I’m still not so sure about it now. I struggle with hygiene and severe depression, anxiety, and ADHD. My parents aren’t the most supportive and tend to lie to my therapists face about my behaviour. I also have mobility issues and a lot of other health issues which contribute to my depression. I’m a juinor in highschool as of writing this and I’m terrified of growing up. I’m getting my first job, learning how to drive, and learning how to do taxes. I’ve said my entire life about how I wanna grow up and leave this miserable town, but now that I’m actually trying to do so, I’m scared for the future.


Parents can be the worst with mental health. Our dad is kind of a crapshoot with that. He goes back and forth between being great and being terrible. They make all the difference though. Hoping that you can find somewhere that makes you feel better soon. Junior year was pretty difficult for us, as it is for most people. Wishing you luck for it. As soon as you get through the year, senior year gets easier. You’re almost there. Just keep going.
