A Bracelet That I Created... A Symbol For People Fighting Depression!

Me personally I have always thought the battle with my depression as a battle, a fight as you will.

The enemy (depression) is strong AND more consistent than you could ever imagine. It has always been my job to battle this obstacle throughout my whole entire life!

I was born on this earth to be happy, so I think personally, I have had the right always to be happy with myself no matter what.

Depression hasn’t always made that easy, of course. YET, while NO matter how strong my opponent we, I was ready every single day to fight and to live another day. Because there were times my life were on the line. there were times depression was almost about to win the battle and I was going to end it all...

YET, no matter how hard and beaten up I got by it, G*d dam it I fought everyday with my life to be here. I fought everyday for the last 13+ years I had to make sure I would see the day to be happy!

My life was on the line AND I had to FIGHT to stay alive. Thats why I call people who have depression or who went through depression FIGHTERS. you had to fight your way to stay alive. You had fight just to make sure you didnt end it all on that certain day.

We are all fighters everyone! Your only not a fighter when you throw in the towel and not here on this earth anymore. BUT if your still here, your a fighter by your OWN choice!

This is my whole mindset has been on depression! I wanted to let people know what this bracelet stands for:

for the fighter who never gives up this battle they are having depression. To know that they fight everyday because they know they have a chance at winning this battle!

- I want to hear your guys feedback on this necklace I want to create....

Hi, I like the idea. I have a band I got when I was coaching at the Paralympic games in London 2012 which say " SIMPLY THE BEST". Even then I was struggling but I had to put my struggles away while I was coaching.

Simple is good.

You could have the tag put on paracord bracelets to appeal to those that like chunky bracelets.

You could add leather thong, or suede or satin cord in various colours the appeal to those who prefer something softer to their skin.

I'd have one that says "UNIQUELY ME" as a reminder that I am special because there is only one of me on this planet.

Hey agora1, YES I'm hispainic (spefically mexican) so I like how it would be a good idea to write warrior in spanish!

Hi husky owner ,

I like it. I've been fighting for over 30 years (since I was 17) and I just turned 50 July 4th. I fight everyday with my physical health too and I'm not giving up ever!! I have bad days and in the past bad months so I am always kinda looking over my shoulder per say but have such a strong fighting spirit. I remember loving the Rocky movie when I was young not only because I'm Italian but because of just watching him train got me so motivated and even if people can only sit in a chair to work out it is so good for u mentally and physically . I've worked out all my life and it is one thing that helps my stress and anxiety so much. I also think u did a great job on the style. 👍👌👏
