A Short Slice of Life Text Adventure/Gamebook.
You follow in the shoes of a not-so average teen. You suffer depression and are trying to get over it and to add onto the problems deeply in love with a girl from your school.

Addressing my reply-
I meant bored not board .
I meant a child/teen not a child-teen. I don't even know what that would be.
Lol

It's okay.
It seems heavily inspired by Depression Quest, at least at the start. Whole lines were taken from said game.
The grammar is also iffy. Unless English is your second language, it's silly you didn't fix it, with auto-correct and all.
The story-line is chunky, I mean, you know exactly what will happen even if there is somewhat of a choice.
Anyway it's not a waste of time, if you're board you should totally give it a shot. I didn't give it 1 star. There are better games too. I would say this barely scratches the surface of depression though, this is a fun game, not an educational game. If you care about good writing in your game I wouldn't play it.
If I had to say one thing, author-Hexdro hammers ill-motivation as a symptom of Depression & not that well. And Depression is so much more then that. This game is not a good show of this debilitating illness. But author-Hexdro did stuff right, they should keep making games, and you should play this if you haven't anything to do.

Also someone else said they didn't really like the poem, me neither. Protagonist said they were REALLY good at poetry and I got excited, but it was kinda, really bad. Going into detail it was so shallow, nothing to think about, it had a limited vocabulary, it screamed 'a child-teen wrote this'. But you didn't ask so I'll stop.

This was absolutely fab! The story flowed and you felt engaged with the MC. The happy ending was very satisfying. Just because a story is short doesnt make it bad and in this case that really shows. Well done...

I don't really like this poem. Not really a big fan of this stuff.

Really good. I related to the MC so much. It's a shame that it's so short though I really liked it.

Really nice game. The story line is somewhat cliche but it is very heartwarming. Love it!

This was a great game! I really enjoyed it, and I thought it was quite cute. I chuckled a bit at what you said at the end about clinical depression. It may take a day or maybe even a week to get over! How about six years and counting? Hahaha... Anyway, this really was a great game. I related to the main character quite a bit, and while I was playing it I couldn't help thinking about how it speaks out to so many different types of people. Congratulations on this great game, and I hope you make more!

A more than decent text adventure. Personally, I related well to the protagonist. The choices actually felt like they mattered, despite there only really being two each page. Enjoyable length.

Really nice cover. I like the drawing.
Oh, depression. Ok. This is going to be interesting.
There's music? That's pretty nice.
Sound of a page flip. Pretty cool so far. Pretty sad the music stopped after the first option. :( I was hoping the music would continue throughout the game.
"You feel like your going through the motions." - your is supposed to be you're
Yeah, there's some grammatical errors. I'm just going to ignore that.
Another page flip sound. Ok.
Not sure if that semicolon is supposed to be there. I mean, if you aren't good at english I understand. Like if you're from somewhere else.
Oh, is it unfinished? Or is that how it ends. I don't check my phone and then there's no options.
Overall, it's a pretty good game. I think if the music continued throughout the story it would be some great background music to get in the mood. Grammatical and spelling errors here and there. I would rate this: 3/5

Awesome game. A few grammatical mistakes (not that I have any room to talk), but I really like it. Keep up the good work!
