Hello, im new here, so hi again. After reading countless topics of depression a subject that keeps coming up is keeping a diary. I’ve looked passed it for months now thinking it’s pointless and why should I? Well, right now as I type this, I’m in a real shit space of mind. And I’m willing…

Something I wrote for an actual writing class that I managed to attend [mostly]. One person suggested it was plagiarism which was a tad upsetting, mainly because it isn't. On reflection [that's a theme of mine] I decided that it was a compliment of sorts, in that it was good enough to have be...
