Answer 1

How I Overcame Depression
The final exam of last term was drawing near. Knowing what it meant for a Senior Three student, I buried myself in study. So many nights found me burning the midnight oil. I thought I was well prepared. Sometimes, however, hard work was just not enough. It couldn’t be more depressing when I stared at my low rank, my mind going blank. But my pride didn’t allow me to appear weak. So I stayed locked away, refusing to talk to anyone.
Fortunately, it wasn’t long before I realized what I was doing was actually hurting those who care about me and doing myself no good. So I went to seek help from my parents. With them motivating me, my depression faded away. Now I have the confidence to win the battle in my Senior Three and brave any difficulty in my life.
