    So where to start?…
    Ok, so lately I’ve just found my self falling into random pits of depression. Nothing really sets it off and it just comes on randomly. I’ll just find myself tired and not wanting to do anything or see anyone.
    From what I can tell its mainly from school stress. All my life my parents have been pushing me to get good grades and be the best and it’s just left me drained.
    I don’t want to be pressured into doing well any more.
    I don’t want to be the doctor my mother wants me to be.
    I don’t want to be the scientist my father want me to be.
    I just want to relax and do what I want to do.
    What that is exactly, I’m not sure yet.

    • I know exactly how you feel. I grew up with the most typical of asian parents and while I did well in school, they weren’t very happy when I told them I wanted to go to music school. No, not a music university, a small, 2 year music school program for voice. No, not for violin or for piano. At the end of the day, just remember that your parents always want the best for you, but it is only what they think that could be. Find something you enjoy, and do more of that. You’ll get through this, I promise. :)
