The Truth

Hey everyone, it's been a while.

So I've loved posting on here over the last few years and it's really lovely for me to be able to share my thoughts with everyone but I've found I've only shown half the story and I've tried to keep the other half to myself.

I suffer from depression and anxiety. I'm on my fifth councillor and my second lot of antidepressants and there are days when I cannot get out of bed or talk to anyone. Obviously, not every day is like that and there are good days and bad days but over the years I've learnt to appreciate the good days and survive the bad days.

I don't wanna make this depressing but the truth is that there's been so much going on in my life and I've hidden it from so many people for so long and I know that family members and friends have read this in the past and I haven't wanted to share something so personal with these people who I wasn't really comfortable with knowing so I've been careful as to not say anything but honestly I'm done with that and there's so much I wanna say and haven't felt I can but now is the time.

I'm not gonna anymore try to make this entertaining or anything and I just wanna make this truthful so if that's not for you, sorry, but right now at least it's what I need to do.

I'm doing really well now though, all things considered. I'm going off to follow my dreams and recently received an Unconditional Offer to study Music at Royal Holloway, University of London and I'm doing two musicals this year which I absolutely love and my life has improved significantly in the last few years but obviously the mental illnesses are still there looming over everything I do.

I'll go into that another time, maybe. I just wanted to give you all a bit of an update and explain what's going on with me.

I'm gonna try post here more but its gonna be very different to what I did years ago on here and I'm gonna make this to be the real me and my real thoughts and so warning you its gonna get a little different :)

Thanks for taking the time to read this guys, I really appreciate it!
