I almost drowned.

So I  tried to speak more but it worked and didn't work at the same time. This led me to depression because more and more people started hating me, and I even lost my best friend. I was extremely depressed, even if there was indoor recess, I would listen to sad music, just to get me by each day. I asked my best friend if she can accept me, which she said yes. Then middle school came by, and I experienced many agreements, many people calling me ugly, and many in my class leaving me out. All I had was my friend Jocelyn (was in 67 and is now in 77). Now in 7th grade, I still have the same from 6th grade but worse, but I have been experiencing depression moments less than last year because I have been reading the bible.

Deuteronomy 31:6 ~ Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you.

And some bullying. I overcame it with my mom and dad helping me with how to properly read and speak.
