Hi there, I’m Evalyn. ❤
I’m a fourteen-year-old female who was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I was raised in the big cities most of my childhood, we’d go to Chicago every summer (and if we were lucky enough, every other winter) I then moved to a small town in South Carolina. And, let me tell you, it was small. Not even 5 years later, we moved to another small town in North Carolina. And again. And again. Until we finally settled for a small city, the state’s capital, Raleigh. My dad ended up getting a promotion, which caused him to have to move to Florida-for a whole year. This tore my family up inside, but no one ever talked about it, in risk of someone bursting out in tears. My mom was the least emotion at first, which puzzled me. I did, however, later find out she was struggling the most. My sister developed depression since she’s a MAJOR daddy’s girl. My younger sister cried every night before bed. My brother got irritated a lot, and used the situation as an excuse to slack off in the house. What did I do? I couldn’t feel any emotion. I felt so much emotion I couldn’t express it. I developed anxiety issues, even my school began to go downhill. I had two panic attacks for the first time ever. This whole situation got me thinking. How many other people are struggling with their mental health? How many other people are dealing with similar situations? Well, as you know, quite a few. I couldn’t just watch it destroy everyone around me. I had to do something about it. So I did.
