I understand the feeling of being trapped, to feel as though there's no hope or light to come.

It's a depression i felt when i was 19. I was lost in life, got into a near death car accident my freshman year in college, studying something i hated simply because it was something my mother pushed me to study. A few months later my dad passed away and i was ridden with survivors guilt.. almost as though my dads life was taken to save mine..

We were financially in ruins since my uncles stole my dads business, and almost lost the house.. i had to take up four jobs, switched my major because i failed all my classes and everything felt hopeless... all my friends no longer where m there for me. I was always sad, kept to myself, and no one was there to help me up.

This was until i decided to take control of my life. I looked at the different options i had. I changed my major to something i had a decent interest in, creates my 5 year plan, got rid of the 4 jobs, took on student loans and uses cresit carda to the amount i would have made working the 4 jobs, and finally began to focus on myself. I started doing construction with my friend to then make more money while focusing on my studies. This was my turn around moment. I wish i found it sooner.

To any of you feeling stuck.. just know there is a way out.. there always is. I almost took my life at that time, and im glad i chose not to. I've since not only created a chanhe in my life, ive positively impacted the life of many others.

No matter what you may think, you can make a big impact on this world. You just first need to focus on you and take control of your situation.

Hang in there and god bless..
