This one was a sad read for me. I struggle with depression and I was even suicidal in my teen years after my mother died. This one hit home a lot with me. It only got four stars because it was shorter than it felt like it should have been. The ending seemed rushed and I wanted more to the story.
"It was a tightness in my chest, yet a hole where something should be that wasn’t there, and a light-headedness as if I were watching everything happening to me without truly experiencing it."
"“It’s like there’s less color in everything. The sky is darker. The world is dimmer. Things that used to be fun, like singing, just make me tired now. I’ve been trying so hard for so long now that I deserve to rest. It’s selfish for you to ask me to withstand it when I can barely get out of bed most days.”"
