I'm not alone in this stress and depression rollercoaster
Hearing others’ stories helped Ally with her own struggles.
“Things do get better, but it won't happen overnight.”
Ally, 14
“I was stressed and depressed because of problems at home and the fact I don't appreciate myself.”
I found Kids Helpline through school and started reading other peoples’ stories. It makes me feel better knowing I'm not alone in this stress and depression rollercoaster.
I've been trying my best to think positively and knowing that others are trying, just like me, makes me feel a little better.
If someone was in the same situation as me I'd tell them that things do get better, but it won't happen overnight. You have to make these things happen yourself, otherwise you'll keep feeling these negative emotions and it will never stop. Kids Helpline is for all ages and can help anyone's situation. I feel better knowing that I, as well as others, can get the help we need.
