“That is the problem with repressed memory and dissociative identity disorder. Your mind represses certain traumas for reasons of pure survival.

“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.
