I have mental illness. Mind clarity is rare, too briefly and often too late. Old friends and acquaintances would look away when they see me. Yup, that unpopular. Of course, I get angry and hurt but deep down, I know I’d do the same too, if I saw 'me'. That’s the icy cold papercut truth. The illness cuts even deeper. I thank you for your readership. Your presence here makes me feel less alone. This blog helps me remember my true worth as a person, and how my own mind threatens it.

This story -##Yesterday morning, her classmates at SMK Seri Kota in Ayer Leleh watched in horror as she fell from the second floor of the school and died from head injuries. ##
scares me very much.
Years ago, when I was 15, I was already showing signs of depression.
There was one time, where I was so disturbed, that I ran out of the classroom, crying.
I remember my friend (bless her) following closely behind me, demanding to know what's wrong with me .
The difference between this young student and myself was- I ran to the toilet and cried my eyes out.
She ran upstairs and jumped.
It's like we were both chased by the same monster, but she turned left and I had turned right.
