Anais commented on the post, Depression and how it affects children and teens

Hi Anais! I loved reading this article of yours. Through your personal experience and interview about mental illness, it showed me even more how there are so many people out there struggling. It’s true, we need people to advocate for us, we need a support system, and we need to know that we’re not alone. In today’s world, we all need to look out for each other and keep reminding ourselves of the importance of mental health awareness. I read this article that talks more about mental health in today’s world, check it out!! https://www.nami.org/Blogs/NAMI-Blog/April-2015/Changing-The-Way-Society-Understands-Mental-Health

Anais, what an inspirational story you shared! I’m so sorry this happened to you in your life. I can’t believe bullies drove you to almost take your life. I know I don’t know you but that absolutely breaks my heart and I’m glad you weren’t successful. You have so much life to live. I have lost a few friends to suicide this past four years. I live in Utah and we have the highest suicide rate in the country. You should continue spreading awareness and your story. I truly think the more we talk about this issue, the more we can help people who feel the same way as you did. I found this article that might help your research. It correlates bullying and suicide. (http://www.bullyingstatistics.org/content/bullying-and-suicide.html) keep doing what you’re doing!! I’m happy you have brought awareness to this issue.
