Hello there everyone!

Welcome to the community!
I am called as Abby, and I joined this community and this subcommunity to get to know the problems the members are facing and help them by letting them vent it out ..:)
Tell us about yourself! :)
@YourFriendforever Hello. My name is Ali. I am 16 years old, and I have been battling depression for 4 years now. That's a fourth of my life so far. Can you believe it? I'm still shocked by that.
I like to write, make Sims 4 animations, edit music videos, and play the guitar in my spare time. Well, sometimes. The rest of the time, I just watch TV shows on YouTube and a couple Anime episodes. There are times when I enjoy my hobbies, and there are times when I do not.
Aside from depression, I have a lifelong sleeping disorder (I don't know WHAT, but there's something there; probably insomnia), I have an average grade of a C or D in my classes, I have self-harmed for 4 years and a little bit when I was 9, and... yeah. I'm passing time each day. That's all I'm doing. I am waiting for a break from my lonely life that I may never get. The only two people I have left are my mother and a married man that lives 3000 miles away, so that's depressing.
Each year is another year that I've surivived, and I'm proud to say that I'm still here. (Or, maybe I'm not proud, given the fact that I've done nothing to change my current situation.)
@BrokenShadow Hugs shadow. Read you story and I am sorry you have struggled with depression for 4 years now. Never feel alone here. You have a whole lot of people who care for you. You aren't alone.
@BrokenShadow You have just not survived but started looking at things positively! :) Just a little bit of effort and you can overcome it all! :)
@BrokenShadow
I echo what everyone else has said. You are loved and you are not alone. I"m fighting with you and am proud of you.
Hi guys - I'm Heather and I'm a 19 year old college student. I've struggled with depression since I was 13. I'm a listener here and I want to be a teacher to help other people who have dealt with the things I deal with. Umm... I have a 10 month old border collie puppy and I really like writing poetry and I am on Color guard at my college and choreograph for that.
@heatherh11 Heather you inspire me. Glad to see you cope with something and that raises hope of everyone who thinks nothing can absolutely be done about it. Pets are a great relaxer and they just cut down all the stress.
