Georgia Shares Her #iAM1N5 Journey…

Meet Georgia, a high school student who is sharing her journey of living with genetic anxiety and recovering from depression. She was born with generalized anxiety and recalls small signals growing up, which gradually got bigger as she got older, but she recalls experiencing depression due to a toxic friendship. She began showing signs of depression, withdrawing from friends and family, not enjoying things she used to, loss of appetite, etc. Her family noticed the change in her behavior and got her into therapy, which she’s been in for about a year. Now, she finds joy in art and creativity, her high school’s Pride club, and thinking about her future. She wants others to now that it does get better!
