@keiraleighprattt: I’d like to start by giving my condolences to anyone who might’ve lost someone during the pandemic whether it was due to the virus or mental health related. At the start of the year in 2021 when I was 16, I started recording little videos to put in my notes. I made these videos to show what I was going through throughout the Covid19 pandemic. I didn’t include the whole videos because they get quite personal and I’m very vulnerable in them. However I am going to be a little vulnerable by showing you a glimpse of my life the past 4 years. I’m very nervous to share my story but I think it’s important to break the stigma around mental illness and really talk about what we’ve gone through so I’m gonna give it my best shot. I’ve always struggled with my mental health dealing with depression, anxiety as well as PTSD from my childhood. But when COVID hit, I fell down into this dark hole I couldn’t claw my way out of. I felt like I was completely alone in what I was feeling and that all hope had been lost. I was angry at the world, sad that I couldn’t see my friends, anxious about what might happen with the pandemic, and completely disgusted with myself. These videos don’t show even a fourth of what I was feeling and how depressed I really was. As the pandemic rules had loosened up and I started to see my friends again and make new ones, I felt my spark come back. I wasn’t as depressed or anxious and it felt like the hope I had desperately been searching for had finally found me. Fast forward to now, of course I still deal with some depression and anxiety. It’s not something that just goes away fully and to be honest I don’t know if it ever will. But that’s okay. I’ve made my peace and learned to love myself for who I am. If you are watching this and have struggled with your mental health either during the COVID-19 pandemic or just in general, whether you’re doing better or at your lowest- I am proud of you. You’re going to be okay, just keep hanging on. You are not alone. ❤️ #covid19 #pandemic #lockdownlife #MentalHealth #coronavirus
