"A feeling of not being alone. Knowing that there are other people out there who are experiencing the same thing as me. It’s easy to fall behind when you feel like you’re alone in your struggles."
-R. W.
By Hin Hannah Delacruz, SDUSD SWEAR Minority Mental Health Subcommittee
Interviewee: L. F., Morse High School student
"You might have some ideas about people who do drugs, some of them might be true. But hold space for those who are really struggling with addiction, with problems in their personal life. My situation and your situation and another’s situation will never be all the same, and how I cope with whatever and how you cope with whatever and how another copes with whatever is not going to be either."
- L. F.
