Abstract:
I chose this capstone Because for many years I struggled with trying to find my self , who I am as a person . Going to High School I faced a lot of problem that Affected my personality. I also built trust issues . I would hurt my self , I would turn to drinking , Drugs . No one knew. I kept everything to myself. I wanted to help someone because I knew that someone out there , was going thought the same thing
Since I was a little girl I've always wanted to be a psychologist. I  always had an interest in helping people with their problems and struggles to get through life when I got this Opportunity to do a big project  knowing that it can be whatever I wanted . Basically My project is about self-esteem and how a person can go through things in their lives and still have confidence in themselves. I picked this topic because I personally struggled with a lot of different things in my life and getting through it was hard , it can cause depression wanting to harm your self and a lot of teens struggle with that . By doing this project I hope to learn about how teenagers think , understand the reason why they do what they do,  what leads them to become depressed , how come their self esteem is so low.This project will enable me to do things that I never had the courage to do such as Talking to different people about their personal life . Allowing people to get a glimpse of my life as well as theirs.
