Lookback: A year after turning 17

Made a promise to myself to live past 16-17

Struggled with depression and suicidal thoughts as a kid, felt guilty for existing, and had a passive suicidal mindset

What I wish I knew
"I wish I knew how to cope with my emotions and thoughts in a healthier way"
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't give up, and seek help when you need it"
