I've seen lot of doctors who disregarded my depression. Even a psychiatrist disregarded it, the day after I was in A&E seeing the on call psych for being extremely suicidal.

I've been told "it's a phase" a lot of times because of my age. Been told I just think too negatively.

My diagnoses now are kind of patchy, but at least my psychiatrist does think I have depression.

	Isn’t it funny how day by day nothing changes but when you look back, everything is different… you once called your brain a hard drive, well say hello to the virus.
