During my most severe bout of depression, I said I was “broken beyond repair.” With help from others, including mental health professionals, I learned I could recover from that belief and use my knowledge and experience to help others. Sounds like you are doing the same. Thanks for sharing what you’ve been through and how it’s changed you.

This is why I write. So others know they’re not alone in their feelings of brokenness or anxiety or depression.

Thank you for reading and sharing your voice here on Substack. I’m glad we’re both here to tell our stories after going through those darkest of days.
