Prologue

Michelle is a 24-year old girl struggling with self-love and self-discovery in this story about navigating the difficulties caused by PTSD and depression.

This is mainly an autobiography-type book told in a fiction format. I'm taking bits and pieces of my own life from the past few years and piecing them together. For me, this is more a journal/stream of consciousness thing than actual story writing, and a way for me to just put my thoughts into something more productive than just a journal. I welcome constructive criticism on the writing itself, in addition to the way I write the characters. I'm a little rusty on my creative writing, so be gentle, please lol
