So I’ve been diagnosed with depression only a few months ago, but I think I’ve been suffering from mental illness for a lot longer than that. All my closest friends know about this, so they would come to me when they need to talk, thinking that I would know what to say.

The thing is, I have no clue what to say. Even though I’ve been battling Anxiety for such a long time, I still can’t figure out what the best way to tackle it is. So when my friends come to me, panic. Which leads me to think that maybe I’m not mentally ill at all, because if I were, I would know what to do right????
