    In this interesting podcast about mental illness, we pick up where we left off in the last episode which would be around the middle of second grade. We were, once again, moving to another state and another school. We will touch on the point where I learned to accept how to be alone and to start thinking in terms of looking out for myself. We also touch on when I started getting invites to friends houses and how I realized our 'normal' was wrong and I started to cover and hide my homelife.
