Anxious and Depressed Because of an Enormous Tragedy
I used to have five children, but now I have four because my daughter passed away at three and a half years old. She was my younger son's twin sister. Then, 4 months later, my mother passed away. When she passed away I kept thinking I was next, I was going to pass away.
Pageants are My Way to Cope with Anxiety
Being in pageants has given me a support group so big it’s almost overwhelming. Thanks to the relationships I have made in these amazing organizations I have learned that I don’t have to be alone.

Abuse, Anxiety, PTSD, and Depression Survivor
Where to start? I grew up in a family with good funds and resources but it wasn't a healthy childhood.
