I have a confession to make. One I think I’d really only feel comfortable admitting in the “safe place” of my blog. Not really something that I really need to admit publicly or really to anyone but it’s affecting me and some are starting to notice. Years of experience have taught me how to expertly […]

Surviving Isolation Pt. 2: Isolating Together
Amidst this global crisis everybody is having to adjust to a new lifestyle. Most of whom aren’t very comfortable with this new forced isolation and asking them to stay home is a difficult adjustment for some. That being said, isolation and staying home has always come very natural to me so I’d say I’m adjusting […]
Surviving Isolation and Coming Full Circle (but not quite?)
The world has changed pretty drastically the past month or so, funnily enough I was just trying to get out of the small funk I was in and trying to get out of the isolating cycle I was getting myself stuck in. Then this whole Corona virus hysteria appears and now everything’s closed and everyone’s […]
Finding My Pack/A Much Needed Adventure
These past few months of therapy, months of learning a lot about myself, months of backsliding but also months of progress have all helped me to figure out more of what it is I truly want. The answer used to just be “to be happy.” However that isn’t as easy of a task to grasp […]
Behind Every Complaint is a Longing
I want to keep this trend of using these posts to talk about the new skills I’ve learned and just truths of life that have sunk in due to either an awful experience or an incredibly fantastic one. My life has been full of plenty of both of those lately. It is a flaw of […]
Allowing Myself to Feel (Happy)
I have never been comfortable talking about any positive aspects of my life, possibly why whenever something good does happen or is happening I only tend to briefly mention it before moving on to the next more negative topics I’m dealing with. In fact any emotion that I am feeling that I don’t have a […]
Starting off the New Decade
I haven’t had a lot of opportunities to write lately. I have been spending time “IRL” with a friend (which is a clarification I have to make because of how rare that’s seemed lately), and still am with them actually and for the most part she’s helped distract me from a lot of things that […]
Wounded Healer
There’s something about the holidays that really just makes me reflect and think back on my experiences and relationships with my family. Probably why I tend to feel the most depressed during these months. I said in an earlier post that I have come to learn that I do not need the validations of the […]
Through and Through
This post I feel is going to take me a while until I actually end up publishing/posting this just because I don’t feel like I have all that much to talk about. I was going through a process, of well to avoid repeating myself again, let’s just say I’m more content now. It’s weird wanting […]
Spotify Wrap – Quick Update
An even more unconventional post if I even end up publishing this one but I had the inspiration to write the last one and ended up publishing it all within just a few hours. The most time was spent really just getting the screenshots because I knew I wanted to just go through it real […]
