Introduction

Hey everyone! I decided to make a blog since it is a new year & a lot of changes are coming my way! The main reason I decided to make a blog is to give others hope. I'm 16, a junior in high school and I live in Georgia ( I'm originally from Queens, NY). I struggle with major depression & I know first hand how hard it can be to have a mental illness. Especially as a teenager you don't expect this kind of thing to happen to you. I would like to keep the hope alive because when you hit rock bottom it's really really dark & your hope dissapears with the light.
So you can call me Leena & I'm here to talk at anytime. I will continue to post hopefully everyday so you can learn more about me & I can learn about you!

  1. Hi Leena,

    Thanks for joining my blog. I hope my blog lifts your spirits when you are feeling down and I'll always keep you in my prayers. I'm already loving your post and look forward to the next. I post weekly.

  2. Hi Leena, depression is a terrible illness, one that I've suffered from since the age of 13.

    There are good days and there are bad days but the most courageous thing you can do and you said it yourself, is to keep the hope alive. (Easier said then done, I know)

    You are doing that just by starting this blog and getting down all the stuff that would
    otherwise crowd your head.

    Good start to your blog and I really do wish you the best for the future. :)

  9. I didn't get depression until age 18. I can't imagine how horrible it would be to have it in Jr or Sr High School. So many pressures! Your blog is great and you have a good attitude despite what you are going through. That's amazing! I have a blog you may enjoy browzing: expressionsofdepression.com . I'll keep in touch. God bless and keep you. Have a great day!
