What are people saying ?

I just came on this website the other day to see what this is all about.Someone told me I should read the vision.And I just wanted to say wow.Even in such a short story about Renee it seems to say so much.Thank you for bringing this to my mind and I will try as much as I can to help those who struggle with depression. Thank you.

It is so amazing what you guys are doing. I feel that so many people are going through these issues but feel as if there is no escape and even for those helping there friend/sibling, who is there to help them? It is such a devastating and scary thing to face and you guys just give it that much more hope. Thank you.

Don't give up. Don't give up on your story. Don't give up on the people you love. Hope is real. Love is real. It's all worth fighting for. (TWLOHA.com)
