This is my first blog, aimed to start the conversation about mental health and societal issues affecting young people today.
I am a 19 year old university student who has a lot to say. After being diagnosed with depression at age 16 and suffering from it for years before diagnosis, I struggled to find methods to help my recovery, being confused by articles about topics from doing exercise to overcome depression to adverts selling herbal teas to get rid of anxiety. Since recovering from illness at age 18, I've learned a lot and want to share my experiences that have helped me become the person I am and continue to grow into, in the hopes that you may see yourself in my words or know that you are not alone in how you feel. Or you might realise that you hate everything I have to say and want to comment this opinion. Either way, enjoy!
