Molly Scheider is doing well these days, with a new job at an East Hampton veterinary practice, plans to enter Suffolk Community College in the fall, and a creative writing project in the works, but it wasn't always that way for the Pierson High School graduate, who manages major depressive disorder, anxiety, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
