Share Your Story About Living With Depression
When we share the stories of our life
The world becomes brighter
A brighter world is a better place for everyone
It is your story – In your words
More than anything, I want this website to become a sounding board and a safe space for people to share stories about living with depression. Sharing stories takes a little courage, but it can lift your burdens. I know the idea sounds strange. However, I know from personal experience that sharing your story can ease the emotional scars caused by depression.
I will NEVER edit your content. Your story will get posted in your exact words. Typos and all. If, after your story is published, you wish to revise or edit your content, just shoot me an email and I’ll make the edits. Someday I’ll figure out how to allow people to edit their own stories. Until then, please use the contact form for edits and revisions. Follow-up stories are acceptable too. Just let me know and I’ll make sure that your stories are linked.
Writing Your Story – Guidelines
Submitting stories without a name is completely acceptable! After all, I do it. You can even change your gender in the story or change the gender of people that you might mention, etc… Whatever you need to feel safe. If you want to remain completely anonymous, avoid specific dates, names of places or other details that might give you away. Remember, you can share an honest story without giving away important details.
Please keep your stories and content PG-13. No profanity, keep all uploaded images safe for general public consumption (young kids read these stories) and avoid being mean for the sake of being mean. I will allow one or two ‘$#$@’ in your story to make your point if needed but consider this a family friendly site. A lot of young folks suffer from depression and I would expect/hope to have them visit to read your stories.
