It sounds really positive that you are thinking about how to further your interest in music! How amazing that you already have a backing on piano for that song.
How did writing music creatively about your experiences make you feel? I can hear that it was an outlet for you when you went through some really tough experiences, especially with how you saw yourself and the stigma around mental health meaning you felt alone.
Please feel free to keep us in the loop with how you are doing. We are all here for you and care about you
I can also really see how writing can be a form of therapy, a way of processing things in a way that expresses your feelings. Throughout your explanation, you talk through the feeling words that are driving those particular lyrics, so it makes sense that you find it a therapeutic process. Keep it up and do share more if you feel comfortable
