Thank you all for the birthday wishes! I just wanted to bring a little awareness on something I've struggled with my whole life. A few months ago I was really going through a rough bout of depression and realizing that I was turning 30 soon and no where near where I'd thought I'd be in life at this time. This is why support systems are so important, to have family and friends who are always willing to talk and understand me even when I'm being my most difficult self. I am proud to say I saw being 30 in a whole new way today. I was encouraged by it, like I've graduated to a whole new chapter of my life bringing me closer to my goals. So if you're going through a difficult time and are thinking of skipping to the end of your book, please stop for a minute and think. Contact someone, anyone including myself, and just talk/be encouraged by others. The ending of a book is anticlimactic without the trials and struggles that have gone before. Continue to allow your story to unfold, and I'll be eager to see where it goes! #grateful #thankyouall #itwasagreatbirthday #30yearsold #augustbirthday #depressionawareness #dontskiptotheend #letyourstoryunfold #beencouraged #motivationalposts #happyleo #leobirthday #leoseason #imchoosinglife #agoodday #talktosomeoneyoutrust #theresalwayshelp #depressionisreal #wecangetthroughthis #iloveyouall #lifeisgood #birthdaywishes #30andproud https://www.instagram.com/p/B0r--h8H-ka/?igshid=m4ldxdwc27v2
