When I was 14, my depression started, and my anxiety followed. It was so hard. At school, I was getting picked on daily, and at home, my mother and step-dad would always be arguing.
Even though I"m depressed I will not let it get me. I will make it through
At school, I would always seem so happy. I was the one everyone loved and came to for help. I didn"t let my depression show. I hid it so well. No one knew how I felt.

When I came home, I would go to my room, and all I could hear was my mom and dad fighting about God knows what. I would just blair my pinks misunderstood album. I would play her song family portrait, and they would just yell at me to turn it down. Not listening to what the song says.

I use to cut back then up until I had my first kid right after I turned 19. She became my reason for living. I knew then I had to stay alive for her, so I stopped. And I"m glad I did. I now have 4 wonderful kids. 2 girls and 2 boys. I love them all so much.

Yes, I"m almost 35 now, and I"m still here. I"m still alive, and I"m so glad I am. I still have so many issues, but I can get through it. I can"t go now. I couldn"t put my kids through that.
Even though I"m depressed I will not let it get me. I will make it through
My depression will not get me. I will stay. I will be strong every day just for my kids. I love them so. They are my life, and I love that
Even though I"m depressed I will not let it get me. I will make it through
I made it this far, so I will continue this way
