Lesson48 A Little Girl's Combat against Depression
When I was in 6th grade, a week before Thanksgiving, there was a fire at my house. I lost all my stuffed animals, including the one I was particularly attached to, my beloved green rabbit. Losing most of my belongings, having to live in a hotel (for a year) and the other stresses that go along with beginning a new school, I was crushed. I began to have trouble going to school and became sick a lot. I became very depressed and at times wishing I could die.
The counselor at school suggested that I keep a journal about my feelings as a way to express my emotions. I did, and I still have that journal to this day as a reminder of that terrible time in my life. With the support of my counselor, a psychologist, my parents and my journal, I was able to overcome this depression.
About a year later most of the feelings were gone, although I still felt a longing for my rabbit. Now, eight years later, life has gone on but it's still hard for me when I remember the fire and those past feelings.I'm glad that I'm still here today, alive and well, and as much as I thought I wouldn't be able, I am happy again.

一个小女孩与抑郁症的斗争
当我六年级时,感恩节前一周,我家发生了火灾。我失去了所有的填充动物玩具,包括一只我特别喜爱的绿色的兔子。我失去了几乎所有的东西,不得不在旅店里住了一年,还要适应新学校的压力,我被压垮了。我开始不能上学,总是生病。我变得非常抑郁,有时希望自己死去。
学校里的辅导员建议我把自己的感觉写下来,以这种方式表达情绪。我这样做了,我至今仍保留了这本日记,它使我难以忘记生命中那段艰难的时光。在辅导员、心理学家、父母和日记的支持下,我终于克服了抑郁。
一年以后,大多数抑郁的感觉都不见了,虽然我仍旧很想念我的兔子。现在,八年过去了,生活还在继续,但当我回想起那场大火和过去的那些感觉时我仍感到痛苦。我很高兴我现在仍在这里,活得很好,从前我几乎认为自己再也不能这样了,我又重新快乐了起来。
