description: I’ve battled with depression for more years then I want to count. At first I didn’t realize how depressed I was. I was ashamed to admit it. I thought others would judge me if they knew. Depression is something I felt should be kept secret. There is a negativity surrounding the word “depression”. I learned there is nothing to be ashamed of; many people suffer from depression. I learned about having a chemical imbalance (serotonin) in my brain and that there are medications to even these serotonin levels out. Depression and I is an expression of my journey. It’s helped to explain to people what you’re going through. The book lets you know that you’re not alone and that others understand.
