Ari had it all: great family, friends, school, sports and other activities. But one day that all changed and Ari was sent to live with an aunt. A beloved aunt, but still… Everything was taken away, leaving Ari to deal with all of the thoughts and then the feelings - neither of which felt good.

Ari’s story is one that describes the power of the mind - for the positive and the negative - and the struggles that humans have when things don’t go well. Mental health challenges are real. Asking for help is the first step.
