Alex and Maggie
Alex sits on the bench outside of the shark tank window with her head in her hands. She is overly familiar with this spot. This has become her place to come after school, to read, or to study. She would much rather be at the aquarium than in her own home nowadays. It is hard to determine who subjects more abuse her way; her mom or her stepdad. Either way, she doesn't want to hear it today. She tries not to believe it. But it is hard not to believe it when that is all she hears and sees from the moment she hits the front door. So, in order to avoid negativity at all costs, she has found her happy place. Right on the bench outside of the shark tank window.

Do Depressed People Want Actual Help or Just Sympathy?
One thing I’ve seen constantly over 16 years of using social media is the number of people talking about depression. Specifically, how depressed THEY are. I can often detect a pattern of these kinds of posts from a handful of the same people.

Meghan LeVaughnPublished 2 months ago in PsycheSocial media is killing our mental health.
As of January 2022, there were 4.8 billion social media users around the world.* Out of all of the social media apps that exist, Facebook is by far the most widely used, with more than two and a half million monthly users. Don't get me wrong: social media has its perks. With each of these, though, comes a problem that I think makes social media much more toxic than helpful. I've always been an avid social media user - but recently deleted my Facebook due to the toll it was taking on me emotionally. It's the biggest networking site in the world. It's going to come with some issues.

Shocking Facts On Abuse Against Men
In today's culture, awareness is spreading. There are many cultural issues that were swept under the rug for decades, and starting with my generation, we are yanking the cover off them. LBGT rights and awareness, mental illness, global warming, and of course, abuse.
