Video of the Day: How to feel better

Nowadays, teens are becoming more and more depressed. In fact, depression and self harm seem to be becoming something that is romanticized on sites like Tumblr. Having been through period of my life being depressed, let me be the first to say, happiness is a lot better than depression. So I found a video on YouTube by the actress, vlogger, directer, and writer Anna Akana, and I found it very helpful. Akana has a wonderful channel and is currently working on writing, directing and starring in short films. She gives great advice and she is hilarious.

Remember, depression is a serious matter, and it isn’t something that should be romanticized or desired. Being happy and excited about life is important, no matter what the situation. Although it might be hard, make every effort to be happy. 🙂

I procrastinate procrastination. And I don't sleep enough. Books, music and tea are the bare necessities in life. I'm addicted to tumblr.
