    • About Me

      hey my name is jake or jacob, whatever you prefer. i was raised strictly southern baptist, my dad is a pastor, and have recently "came out" to my parents and close friends. i love hanging with my friends because they are so accepting. if only i could say the same for the rest of my family. i was diagnosed with teen depression and anxiety disorder in april of last year. by reading my journals you will see it has been a trying year.
