Choose one of the following prompts for your narrative:
Sedbober [7]

Answer and Explanation:

Hi. This question requires a personal answer, based on your own experiences. however, I'm going to show you an answer and hope you can use it as a template to create your own answer.

I usually have difficulties to communicate with my family when I'm facing difficulties that make me sad and with weakened mental health. This difficulty occurs because, in these moments, I feel weakened, without energy and I have no hope that someone will understand my problems. The last time this happened was when I was worried about the future and what my situation would be like a few years from now. I felt very anxious and devastated by these thoughts although I wanted to talk to someone about it, I was very scared and ashamed and I kept it all inside myself, which only made the situation worse. However, my mother noticed how crestfallen I was and started talking to me, giving me confidence to talk about my thoughts. In this case, I managed to learn that we shouldn't keep our problems to ourselves, but look for someone we trust to talk to and take a weight off our conscience, because even if communication doesn't solve our problems, it can give us a certain comfort, the that will improve our situation.
