I very much sympathize. I also strongly caution you to be careful with what you say here. It could end up doing far more harm than good for your application. If you want to talk about this, focus on how you OVERCAME these challenges, how this fortified your resilience, with the reassurance that you are now a much stronger person for having experienced it. Otherwise, some AOs are going to worry about how you will handle the pressures of college life and whether you’ll be a liability.
