After seeing all these different stories, I thought maybe I should share mine.  I don’t even know where to start… Ii was diagnosed with bi-polar, depression, PTSD, Anxiety, and Paranoia. I was abused a lot when i was younger, and it kinda changed my mind about how life was for me. I thought of giving up overall. I was always in my room. I started hearing people talking even though there was nobody around. The slightest things would scare me even to this day (I’m 16 right now). I have really bad trust issues because I was always being lied to. I still find myself in situations where my anxiety gets the best of me. I start having panic attacks, and nobody seems to know what to do. I used to be addicted to a lot of drug substances. I was about 12-13 when I started. Ever since then, people have distanced themselves from me, so that caused me to become even more depressed because I had nobody. My mom left me, and my dad.. Well he left too, so i’m living with my aunt. She noticed I needed help, and she was the only one who made it happen. I went to rehab for about 6 months, but in my eyes it didn’t help. Everybody tells me it’s gonna be okay.  It’s funny how nobody is dealing with what i’m going through. Over the years, I feel like things have gotten slightly better. In my case I’ve been clean for almost a year, but I still run away from my problems because I’m scared of what might happen. I’ve had a lot of suicide attempts, I’ve overdosed a lot in my life, and I’ve had quite a few of toxic relationships when i was 14-15. I’ve been listening to Juice Wrld since his first song came out, and I feel like I can relate to a lot of the things he went through. I just know I’m not alone in these kinda situations and I know my family will help me..
