How I overcame My Life Long Battle With Depression and Suicidal Thoughts In Nature

But this life, as brief and precious as it is, has given me experiences worth sharing—stories of transformation, struggle, and awakening. After deep reflection, I’ve decided to open a window into my journey here on this platform. Why now? Because I’ve undergone a transformation—a shedding of the person I once was. I used to carry bitterness and hatred, molded by experiences in what felt like a harsh, unforgiving world. But something changed. I found myself. You can explore that part of my journey [here]. My hope is simple: to inspire just one soul—one brother or sister sharing this incredible…
