One of my favorite organizations, To Write Love On Her Arms, just finished their national suicide awareness/prevention campaign, and as someone who has struggled with depression for quite a while I wanted to do a 2 part blog series about depression. The first part will be my personal struggle with depression which I’m almost done writing and should be up within the next few days. The second part will be for anyone who has a friend struggling with depression and ways to help them. I don’t have it down to a science, but based on personal experience it will be what has helped me. A lot of the time us people with depression seem like we don’t want to get better, but in reality we just don’t know how. I’m also hoping that by writing about how depression feels for me in part 1 it will help others understand the struggle that people with depression face. So that’s what’s coming up. The title I’ll be using will be the same one as above. It’s the tag line twloha used for their campaign and it really inspires me.
