i used to be extremely depressed when i turned 10, something traumatic happened to me and it just made me feel worthless. as time went on i kept carrying my past along with me, it was like i would never let go of the past and keep going in life i felt worthless like nobody at all cared about me. i was sent to rehab twice and tried to straighten myself out but that didn't work. Then my freshman year in college i got a phone call saying that one of my best friends took his own life. i broke down and cried for 2 hours. this was the wake up call for me to change b/c if i didn't things would've gotten worse for me. recently i have let go of all the traumatic things that has happened to me in my past, and i feel a lot better. i am now going to school to become a social worker that way i can help out ppl with mental health problems. so it's never to late to change your life. if i can do it you can also.
