Covid has taken a toll on a lot of people - A lot are struggling and they have no one to turn to, in some tragic cases, some have ended their lives, because they can’t see light at the end of the tunnel.
Having depression and anxiety isn’t something to be ashamed of, telling someone you’re depressed is the hard part though talk is the one of the most important steps to improve your mental well-being. I struggled from depression a few years back and I am so grateful that I have such amazing friends who would just sit and listen to me and give me a cuddle. Yes, sometime that’s all it will take to save a life, someone to talk to and a cuddle.

I’ve never liked celebrating birthday but this year is different. Life might be very short from now haha Maybe I should do something so and give back to the society.
