Chapter 1: Lack of Color

I look around myself, and all I see is gray...

16 year old Quinn Heart knew something was wrong. No one should ever feel as sad as she does every day... Finally, she figures out she was right. She’s diagnosed with depression, Bipolar Disorder. Just like her mother had been. Her mother had committed suicide when Quinn was only 13, and Quinn swore to herself that she would never follow suit and cause her loved ones the same pain she feels.

Things are looking up when she begins to meet a new group of friends. But when Quinn finds out new things about her mother, she isn't sure she can cope. Not with knowing her mom wasn't as perfect as Quinn always thought she was.
