Alysha Speer
“Depression weighs you down like a rock in a river. You don't stand a chance. You can fight and pray and hope you have the strength to swim, but sometimes, you have to let yourself sink. Because you'll never know true happiness until someone or something pulls you back out of that river--and you'll never believe it until you realize it was you, yourself who saved you.”
― Alysha Speer

Brittany Burgunder
“Forgiving yourself, believing in yourself and choosing to love yourself are the best gifts one could receive.”
