Blog of a Depressed indie author
I have suffered from depression and anxiety for as long as I can remember. I suffered my first full-blown panic attack at the age of 11 while sitting in homeroom in junior high. It took a trip to the nearest hospital and oxygen to calm me down. Now oh so many years later, I still suffer from major depression and anxiety. There are so many out there that do, and so many out there that suffer quietly. Frankly, I am one of those. This is a HUGE step for me to admit to anyone, more so to those I don't actually know.
I want this place to be open for anyone who is having a bad day, is feeling down, or anxious. For anyone who just needs to vent or wants a listening ear... I am here.
I can't say that at times I may post silly things in the hopes of making you smile cause at times I can be downright silly. But most likely this will be my struggles, my diary, of my life as I attempt to keep my head above water.
I hope to hear from you. And I hope that we can encourage each other with techniques, ideas, anything at all that allows us to keep moving forward. Cause when it comes down to it, that's what we're all trying to do--move forward.
