Depression: What It Was Like

In this episode, I begin to talk about one of the darkest moments in my life and What It Was Like.  My ignorance led me to believe I was too strong to experience mental illness, and I blamed myself for allowing it to happen.

At first, it felt as if I was being sucked into a darkness that I couldn't outrun.  I hated my friends and family because they did not understand, their advice did not help, and I was envious of their happiness.    Confused about what I was going through and not receiving the help I needed, I eventually stopped running, and it felt as if I was sitting at the bottom of a dark pit. 

This is my story.
