At first the doctors provided me with a treatment that should have treated 90% of the cases‚ but they didn’t have any effect on me‚ and with the time running out quickly they resorted to the next best treatment. If this treatment didn’t work‚ I was only left one other option and

Declaring my Independence from: Depression I am declaring my independence from depression. I would enjoy doing this since it invades my life. It isn’t something that can just be threw off. Depression consumes me and takes my life. I can’t be cheerful or anything that I usually would be and that is not tolerable. I want to be able to sleep at night feeling worthy of myself and my life.

While Drew and his mother were there‚ a stout‚ frazzled woman banged into the cart and then just kept going. In response‚ Drew shook his

afternoon‚ after discussing my computer science project with my professor‚ I find myself seated in a visitor’s chair in his office on the second floor of the Glatfelter Hall. The professor is about to leave the room to grab some books and a cup of coffee‚ but he allows me to stay. (Seeing myself as a professor in the future‚ I enjoy hanging out in my professor’s office.)

One of my most cherished assumptions is that all goals are reachable if you work hard to achieve them. I believe with dedication and faith‚ any person can accomplish what they set out to do in life and become a winner. Throughout history there were many people we considered winners‚ who‚ in fact‚ lost many times in their lives. A newspaper editor fired Walt Disney because he had "no good ideas." Even though he hit 714 home runs‚ Babe Ruth struck out 1‚330 times. Thomas Edison performed more than
