"If your mind has ever made you feel like the world would be a better place without you, that is not YOU talking. That is your mental illness blurring your ability to see that better days are coming, a symptom of being sick. This book is a survival guide from a teenage girl who felt the heaviness of depression and lived to see the other side. Every time I felt like letting my mental illness win, I wrote down a reason why I shouldn't, why I needed to stay alive. These 365 reminders are what helped me tackle suicidal thoughts head on, and now I want to help you do the same. 'Why I Stay' sets your focus on staying to see tomorrow. You don't always have to feel excited for the future; sometimes it's enough to simply be curious about what's to come."--Back cover.
