My name is Elsie and I am one of the many millions in this country who live in the shadow of depression.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been fighting against feelings of despair and worthlessness.  The battle is ongoing and demanding.

Over the years, I’ve looked for a place online where I could find comfort by reading the stories of others who live with the same burden. I never found exactly what I was looking for so I created it myself.

If you agree that when we open up, our load gets lighter, I hope you’ll contribute your voice by clicking “Submit” below the stories.

I urge you to join our community of fighters because #isolationkills.

Together we’re bigger than depression.
