I was diagnosed with depression when I was 20 years old. I believe the symptoms were identifiable earlier. I plan on sorting through previous blogs and journals and memories to better understand my own experience with depression. Please note, I don't expect anyone to read this. However, if you do, all I would hope you take away from my ramblings is that depression is real. And if you suffer from it, know that you are not alone.
