I'm not sure this quit fits here, but i'll give it a try. I got by English exams coming up soon, and I plan on writing a fictional story evolving around mental illness. Focusing on the state of depression and anxiety attacks since this is what I got the most personal experiences around.
The thing is; I need some inspiration. So does anybody have any good descriptions of what it feels like to want to die? Metaphors that are in one or another way sort of depressing? Maybe you know about a great novel or short story that might can give me some advice? Or maybe you've written a great paragraph yourself you think I might will like?
I'm sorry if anybody finds it triggering that i choose to write about this. The reason is simply to get things sort of out of my chest, and write about something I care about and as a plus maybe my teachers will understand my depression better?
So, anybody got advices?
