Photo taken by contributor Annie, a woman who lives with depression, anxiety, PTSD, dissociative disorder and a myriad of other issues that haunt her. She enjoys writing and art, and escapes reality by reading or being among trees.
About this photo: “This photo was taken on a walk in LaCrosse, WI with my daughter. She visits once a year and when she leaves to go back to her home out west, it feels like my heart is being ripped out if my chest. While I can intellectually understand that she has a life, her work, a husband and friends… I love her. Being with my daughter makes me feel complete, whole; and when she leaves, my spirit, mind and heart are shattered.”
