How Pokemon Saved My Life

How Pokemon Saved My Life. This Is My Story.

Life is weird. If we could see a crystal ball of what's to come, some things we would be incredibly pleased with, and some things we wouldn't believe we need to endure.

This video is my personal story about how the simple act of collecting Pokemon Cards, building master sets, and finding joy in the small things in life helped to pull me out of a difficult time when I felt nothing could improve.

My journey was long, arduous, and, more importantly, damaging, not only to myself but also to my loved ones.

Life is complex, though I found that simple things sometimes make a difference. I went through an incredibly eye-opening experience, and I share my journey because I felt the time was right.

This was a video I felt was necessary that people who follow my journey deserve to know.
