This is such a powerful write-up, it made me so emotional. I was in this EXACT same situation couple years back. As the head girl and leader of the debating community, people had high expectations of me. Everywhere; school, church, home. And when life didn't go as planned, I fell into depression as well.

It is not often talked about how the stage of moving from S.S.2/S.S.3 to the university can be overwhelming. I wish schools would include mental health subjects in the curriculum for senior secondary school students.

Thank God for life. I'm glad found light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you for sharing this with us.
