You have no doubt seen or heard the commercials: "Where does depression hurt? EVERYWHERE. Who does depression hurt? EVERYONE." Mental illnesses can consume you, take over your entire life and hurt everyone around you if you let it. I am no exception.

My life feels like I am stuck riding on a rollercoaster in the middle of a hurricane. I have ups and downs, and I have left a path of destruction in my wake. My sanity dangles on a tiny fragile string, and through this blog I am giving the world a look into my broken mind and my unstable life.

In the end, I am just a girl trying to maintain my sanity in a candy-coated world of misery. Here you'll get a glimpse at just how true those commercials are. Keep your arms and legs inside the blog at all times, hold on tight, and prepare yourself for a very bumpy ride ...

30 Days of truth about me - Day 7

Day 7 of 30 Days of Truth About Me

Day 07 → Someone who has made your life worth living for.

I'd have to say a someone who isn't even a person. My dog Oreo has made my life worth living for. When I got him a few years ago, I was severely depressed and felt like I had nothing worth living for. I felt like I had no purpose. I didn't care to live. My therapist recommended that I get a pet to help give me a purpose. I found Oreo on Petfinder.com as a 10 week old puppy who was found walking along a freeway and was rescued by this small independent pet rescue group. He instantly gave me a purpose because he couldn't live without my help. He showed me unconditional love, which I needed. He also provided me with laughs because he was a goofy puppy. He also is the most compassionate animal I've ever seen. All this time later, I still have never regretted the decision to get a dog. He has truly saved my life.
