Sister-Soror AKA_Monet,
Thank you for sharing your experience. I appreciate it. Although my situation is not to the extent of yours, I do live with depression. I've sought help as an adult and I’ve learned (without medication so far) ways to deal with it. I’ve learned to not be so hard on myself and appreciate everyday and the people in my life. That old cliché, Things happen for a reason, I believe it. It’s {the depression} made me make a decision to either let it take me and destroy me or become a stronger person and deal with things head on (or realize when to let not so important things go).

If that stops some Black girl from considering suicide, then ASHE, AKEERAH!!!
I could go ON and ON... But for now, I will stop there...
I am only human and I will live my life for the best as God has intended it to be...
