Standing Up Against Stigma > Alexa’s Story

Your battles do not define you.

My journey began at the age of 13, following the passing of my grandmother.

This loss triggered severe PTSD and anxiety, eventually leading to depression. In 2023, I experienced suicidal thoughts and sought help at an inpatient center to address my struggles. While I continue to face daily battles, they do not dictate my identity. I cannot emphasize enough the importance of mental health awareness and the vital role of a supportive network. Without the unwavering support of my friends and family, I’m uncertain where I would be today.
