    Eighteen year old me is much happier compared to eleven year old me, something I never guess would have ever happened. I thought I was never going to be happy or able to live my life like regular people, but I was completely wrong because nothing is wrong with me I’m just as unique as anyone else is. Being comfortable with my skin has helped me deal with my skin disease better, because I realized when I was depressed it was harder to deal with the pain. I still have pain here and there but now that I’m happy it’s easier to deal with because I don’t concentrate on the pain, I push it out of my mind. A lot has changed in the past seven years, I’ve gone from being depressed, to hating myself, my body, to being the happiest person ever, and the most accepting person as well. I’m glad I went through this phase, because now I can share my story to others and hope that whatever their battle is, they can get through it and no longer how long they take; months, years, it’s okay because with time you can get through
