This week, despite school still being in session, I am home. Why? Because I am living proof that mental illness doesn't just go away, and sometimes, it can get worse before it gets better. Last week, despite overcoming so much over the past months, I experienced some of the worst days of my life. Though these days were tough, they taught me valuable lessons about overcoming obstacles in life, and that no matter what, you should never give up.
