My name is Jen, and I’m lucky to be alive.

The first time I realized a child could be happy was when I was an adult. I wouldn't say I had a terrible childhood, but I would say it was plagued by never-ending sadness. "Depression" wasn't really a term people used back then, but if they had, I would have been a textbook case.

I can’t express how valuable it is when you share something like this from the heart. My life has had some dark parts, so I can relate to a lot of what you have written. Thanks for sharing.
