My Previous Depression

The exact reason I was depressed is because people would take my words and actions and twist them into something they are not. Blow small comments way out of proportion. Treat me like a rat in a cage to turn me into someone I am not and don't want to be.

It created an extreme learned helplessness. A fear of expressing myself.

This is why I don't give a fuck what anyone thinks anymore. (Although, what people think of you, does effect you)

Express yourself. People never interpret anything correctly, especially if you are intelligent. Don't let inconsiderate people who only think they understand, hold you back.
