    When my depression bout happens, it feels like everything is grey & dull. Sometimes it feels painful because I want to cry all the time.

    Taking back your time isn’t just for entrepreneurs but this is about life. Since I was a teen, I’ve always had to work harder than everyone else, catered to everyone’s needs & do the best I can to make other a little more happier. At least, try to. This is all while working a full…
