Depression 100% I have lost so much of my youth to it, and even now with my meds and lifestyle changes it still finds its way back into my life. Hell, depression is the reason why I'm 21 and still in highschool! It's an awful condition

Been in the same exact position :(

Hope you get to make up for the lost time
