I think the best way to portray it in writing would be through the mental toll it takes, especially if you want it to be a minor part of the story. Focusing on the depression, self loathing, & in...

The way we mature, the challanges we face everyday tens of times, makes us more empathetic, better friends, parents, siblings. I struggled to accept it but when I did, it turns out it is not so bad as...
