I learned in class that it is important to understand yourself in order to not be in the situation of having depression on myself. I think the video was very powerful, as the personal experience of the girl who experienced depression herself was shown. By this, I saw how important it is to not overstress or pressure myself with the environment I have. Also, the view of the surrounding people was shown from her own view, which made me re-think about the words to give to people depressed when I want to support them.

From the start of the term, I had many moments when I was stress or depressed on my work or from the new environment I had as I entered into IB. I am proud of myself when I am able to overcome the depression and use it a chance for myself to look back at my work I have done and improved on it for better learning. By this, I think I am able to put enough pressure on myself, but not too much that makes it hard for myself to stand back up.
