Thank you for sharing this, Jane. As someone who has struggled with depression for my entire life and who is obsessively monitoring my daughter's mental health, your eloquent and powerful words resonate deeply.

Oh Jane. This is so beautiful and honest. Thank you for speaking from the place of a learner, a mother, and a teacher, about your own journey, Annie's journey, and the place where they intertwine. I'm sharing your post with my daughters, who will be enriched from reading it, as I am.

I am sure that it is terrible to watch your child suffer emotionally, psychologically, and physically. Good thing she has such a wise, capable mother.
