Exceptional There is a light at the end of the tunnel A New Beginning by Joanne Gill-Maddick Use These Words writing prompt entry

I suffered from depression and anxiety since I was eleven years old. There's times I thought I was going crazy this I surely know. I was painfully shy all thorough the years. When darkness overtook me, life was filled with many struggles and  fears.   I always felt inferior to others I found it difficult to express how I felt. I had retreated into myself because of the hand I was dealt. No matter how hard I tried the words just wouldn't come. I felt so sad and lonely inside, my spirit had grown numb. I listened to too many lies that shattered my self esteem.   I allowed myself to be bullied by others who were just downright mean. I sought help and came to terms with a very painful past. I cried an ocean of tears but I knew the pain couldn't last. Here's to happy turns it's a new beginning you see.  In spite of all my struggles therapy was a life changer for me.
