I don’t ever want to go back to being depressed. I, like many others, found myself in a dark place during 11th grade of high school, and watched myself slide into a place that I felt I couldn’t escape. I didn’t have many friends, and I hid what I was going through from the friends I did have. Looking back, I found my way out of my depression by turning to my friends, and trusting them to support me and emotionally lift me from the dark place in which I had settled.
