i’ve used my platform on here to speak about mental health and the role it’s played in my life but never to show the work God has done in my life and to spread the Gospel. social media can be a blessing and a curse depending on how it’s used and such. i deleted all socials for a bit since it was just a distraction in my spiritual life. but while receiving updates from my friends in Thailand, my heart has been troubled. how can i start with the people that are right in front of me? well here i am to tell my story. not to transform your life, but hopefully just to plant a seed. ->>

i grew up in the church but ended up just going my own way throughout middle & high school. i never lost sight of God but i was just so caught up in the world and my own ways that i thought i could go through life on my own. that was not the case. middle school was one of the worst times of my life. never finding a group, a sport, or a place to fit in. i got made fun of, was isolated, and was surrounded by people that were never truly my friends, to the point that i wanted to take my life when i was freshly 14. no one knew. i thought and thought about it but never acted it out. come freshman year in high school, my papa passed away. the first “big” death i’d ever experienced. i became depressed, weak, struggle with anxiety, developed and eating disorder, then fell into a cycle that never allowed me to feel human. i found my identity in sports and academics. those were the only two things holding me together. but it wasn’t enough. i committed to play in college my senior year…yay!! but it still wasn’t enough. September 27th, a childhood friend ended up taking his own life. boom. all the struggle i’d bottled up until that point just came crashing out. i broke down in to tears and and begged my parents that i needed help. professional help. i ended up getting medicated but guess what. it still wasn’t enough. freshman year in college was one of the worst times in my life. i started to wonder if other people’s lives would look better without me living. i was surrounded with people who made my life miserable and drowned out all the noise with alcohol
