I Found Hope Again

<div class="ExternalClass1102D952B11E40C3A6AB67339A5933AC"><p style="font-family:georgia;font-size:16px;"><span>Depression to me felt like I was drowning trying to gasp for air while drowning. I felt like that for a long time I felt so depressed that I just wanted to end it all and take away the pain by cutting (I stopped now)., Texting with you guys and emailing you guys really helped me use my positive coping skills. It's been a few days and I can honestly say I feel better than I've ever felt before. I went from going in and out of inpatient and day programs and just feeling so hopeless and depressed that I would do anything to get rid of the pain that I would self-harm there was even a point where I wanted to end it all but now I found hope again you guys helped a lot with that thank you. I admire how much you guys help teens who are going through a hard time you made me go from not wanting to help myself to wanting to help others and become a clinical social worker. Thank you so much. </span></p> <span style="font-size:16px;"> </span></div>
