Your Health Matters
The transitioning of teenagers to adults is not an easy path. Students who go to college must handle a lot of responsibility. And truth be told, life happens. Whether there is a catalyst or not, Mental health is present in everyone. So, imagine battling, several classes, jobs, relationships, homework, and many more, while also battling mental health issues. Just as we do physically, we must remain healthy mentally and emotionally. A major mental issue that affects everyone is depression. Depression is a mental disorder characterized by a loss of joy and interest in everyday life. Depression affects over 75% of college students in America and can lead to worse things such as suicide. The cause of depression could be caused by anything being genetic, environmental, etc. Symptoms of depression could be loss of interest and consistent pessimism, loss of energy, feelings of loneliness, guilt complex and lack of self-worth or living, difficulty sleeping and feeling restless, weight gain/loss, suicidal thoughts, etc. Dealing with depression while also in college, is a challenge no one should face, especially alone. Unfortunately, it is very common as stated earlier and I have experience in it. It was primarily due to covid.
My first semester in college was not what I always dreamed it would be. It was the second year of covid-19 and my plans along with society were flipped all the way around. I was still struggling to cope and bounce back from not having a fun, cool senior year and not making it to other colleges I dreamed of. Let alone dealing with tons of friendships and relationships ending and my parents getting a divorce. I was extremely bummed out and didn't even have any joy or interest in being in college anymore. I thought "What was the point"? In doing so, my grades dropped exponentially and could have made bad go to worse very quickly. Everything I could've worked for would've been for nothing and I potentially could have gotten even more depressed.
I bring up my story for two reasons. For one reason, I never had anyone tell me I was depressed. In fact, it was the opposite. My family constantly gaslighted me telling me I was not depressed and that I was ungrateful for the life I had, which then made things worse. I never want anyone to go through anything remotely similar to what i had to go through. The second reason is because, just like me, everyone else has a story. A story that defines their lives and we have no idea what others are going through. I wanted to make this post because I want people to know that they are not alone and that it is okay to feel how you feel. The important thing though is to help you and overcome these feelings. So, the transition from teenager to adult can become a lot easier when you have the resources and people to guide you and help you. Thank you, and may you have a wonderful rest of your life.

Venom and spiderman been with me since *BIRTH*!!! I know almost everything about them than the average person should. Spiderman 3 ( in my opinion ) was fair, but didn’t serve justice to my man venom. I too had no hope for this film until I heard the rumors and the photos and now THIS!!! On behalf of *TRUE* Venom and Mcu fans can we just say that movie can actually be worth the hype and have hope??
When I said Venom was going to be more awesome and terrifying than anything in Di$ney’s formulaic, safe Mediocre Cinematic Universe, all you MCU fans laughed at me. Well I have to say, you aren’t laughing now, are you?
