'Happy Birthday to me. 15. The end of the world!'

​

Noah is fifteen and lives with his dad. Just like any other teenager, he drags himself to school, visits his grandparents, and watches stupid videos on Facebook until crazy times in the morning, just to avoid revising.

But also like a lot of 15-year-olds, Noah finds life difficult. Very difficult. And he doesn’t know how to cope. This is a story about coping, about getting by and as Noah’s dad says, 'You’ve gotta laugh!', but what if it's not funny... How do you cope when you’re clearly not Alright?

'Alright?' was written in the summer of 2019, from personal experiences and those of others around us.
