I WAS NOT ALRIGHT

<p><b>What if the truth was&hellip; you were never really alright even when you looked like it?</b></p><p>This is the story of what often goes unseen&mdash;the silent weight the invisible ache and the long uncertain walk back to light.</p><p>In these pages you&rsquo;ll meet a narrator who spent years doing everything right&mdash;scoring smiling showing up&mdash;while quietly carrying something she couldn&rsquo;t name.</p><p>It wasn&rsquo;t until her world softened into silence and the noise inside grew unbearable that she finally understood what it was: depression.</p><p>This is not a story of quick fixes.<br/>It moves through therapy rooms and panic attacks through unspoken grief survival and all the moments too tender for Instagram stories.</p><p>It&rsquo;s about healing that doesn&rsquo;t follow timelines but lives in the messy human decisions made in the dark.</p><p>Because even in the ache there is grace.<br/>Even in the falling there is becoming.<br/>And even when healing is quiet and uneven&mdash;it is still real.</p><p>It looks like choosing to walk towards the light every single time.</p>
