Depression can happen fast
13 year old female
Depression can happen fast. At first you don't realise it, but when you start thinking about hurting yourself or running away, you know what's up. This is a story about a 13 yr old girl. This is my story.
I was 10 when I first started showing the signs of depression. When I was 12, I started hurting myself. One night I was in my room and I hurt myself badly. I screamed and my mum came in and shouted at me. We had to go to the ER.
After that, I never tried hurting myself but I was still depressed, so I planned to run away. I wrote a letter to my mum and dad, but on the day I was gonna run away, my mum found the note and pulled me out of school. She made me talk to someone at Kids Helpline. After that, they recommended a place where they talked to me about the dangers of running away and I soon stopped thinking about it.
