🎶
Young teenager Eris Owens always finds herself in a never-ending battle with her mental health. It appears that she can never catch a break. Anxiety, ADHD, depression and OCD seem to run her life. She's doing everything she can to be "normal", but it just isn't enough. Until one day, she meets up with an old family friend. Their son, Tony O'Neil catches her eye and she's instantly crushing on him. He's perfect: handsome features, sweet, a musician, a nature enthusiast and has an amazing sense of humor. What more could she ask for? But she believes he would never be interested in her. It isn't until she digs a little deeper to realize they have quite a bit in common...

Tony O'Neil seems perfect from the outside, but in reality, he isn't. Too afraid to open up to others, he stores up his emotions, in hopes to gain approval from others. He always feels as though he doesn't quite belong to the people that surround him. That is, until he meets Eris Owens...

This heartwarming story about the teenager's struggle with mental health and discovering young love is completely fictional, but was inspired by true events. I decided to write this story in order to spread awareness about mental health struggles that real people (including myself) deal with today.
