“I don’t have to live in suffering like I thought for so long. I didn’t realize that I had been depressed since puberty, with bouts of really really bad rounds of it, until I started taking antidepressants and was introduced to actual emotions and feelings.

I just had to sit there and wait and learn what they were.”
