Whispers of Love
The sterile hospital room was awash in the soft, muted glow of early morning. The rhythmic beeping of machines filled the air, creating a surreal symphony of life and uncertainty. Two souls occupied this small space, each lost in their own world of pain and contemplation.

Finding A Purpose in Life: In My Own Words. Content Warning.
September is Suicide Prevention and Awareness Month and in this story, I open up about the struggles I've personally went through and still go through today. It's understandable that suicide is a very taboo topic to discuss, especially on social media sites like YouTube. On there, for most YouTubers, they can't even utter the word or any variation of it, because apparently, YouTube will flag videos of anyone mention such a uncomfortable topic. How are people supposed to honestly talk about their own struggles about this, but they get censored? I believe that spreading awareness about it and sharing our stories could be very helpful to those going through the trials and tribulations of life. It's an uncomfortable topic, but making people feel uncomfortable, especially when it comes to suicide awareness, is necessary. Having open and honest conversations is a start and it shouldn't be demonized or repressed in the media or social media in general. It's okay to not be okay, because as I've stated in my previous social media posts, there's no such thing as a perfect life. We all go through dark and/or depressing moments in our lives. Being open and honest about how we're feeling is one of the ways for us to start a conversation about suicide.

Anxious Depression. Content Warning.
Anxiety and depression often manifest together, and their presentation can vary. At times, anxiety can give rise to depression, stemming from conditions like obsessive-compulsive disorder, where overwhelming thoughts or persistent rituals dominate one's mind. Additionally, individuals may experience generalized anxiety disorder, characterized by intense worry and fear. Some individuals may even have such severe anxiety that they start their day by feeling nauseous or burdened by a constant heavy weight on their shoulders. Some individuals experience the sensation of their throat closing throughout the day, which can be incredibly distressing, particularly when there isn't a clear cause for their anxiety. Continuous feelings of anxiety without an apparent reason can lead to self-doubt and questioning of one's own well-being, ultimately contributing to the development of depression over weeks or months. In such cases, individuals may find themselves dealing with both an anxiety disorder and depression simultaneously.
