My Story
Hi. My name is Makena and here is my story summed up about my metal illnesses. Illness #1 - Depression I grew up with depression. I knew since I was 13 that I had depression. It’s something that I kept to myself. My parents never got along and my childhood memories of them being happy are very slim. There was no love in my household. I failed school, I was made fun of by my peers, and I struggled with my weight. I was 13 when I started self harm. I was 16 when my parents decided to divorce. I was 17 when I first thought of suicide. I told my mom and she couldn’t understand. Ten days after my 23rd birthday I got home from the bar very drunk and high on cocaine. I then grabbed my bottle of Valium and took every pill I had left. I began to feel my pulse slowly fade away. I woke up five hours later and drove myself to the hospital. I was sent to a psych ward where I was held for six days and then I went to rehab. I saw a number of counselors and was put on medication. So far it’s working. I still get little bursts of feeling really low and wondering why I’m still here. But I’m still here.

I Was Once Lost
When I was growing up I always felt different then everyone else I went to school with. I never knew what it was. But as I grew older I was wondering why I was staring a little bit too long at the girls in the locker room getting ready for gym class and why I was obsessing over the girl who was two years older than me who had no idea who I was. I remember one day when I was in eighth grade there was this girl who was very open about her sexuality and she asked another girl if she wanted to kiss her. I was so uncomfortable and when my mom came to pick me up I told her what was going on and she asked how I felt about it. I told her that I was interested and that I was scared to say that I was attracted to the same sex. She told me it was OK but I shouldn’t tell my dad. (By the way, my first kiss was my best friend in elementary school). I learned about Pornhub when I was fourteen and the first category I clicked on was ‘lesbians’. I thought that was completely normal and that all girls probably watch this category. I guess I was wrong. I tried watching male and female porn but it was just not as intriguing.
