So, I have been drained lately. If you read my previous post (Bursting Sponge) you would know. I don’t know why that is. It could easily be the pain taking a toll of my body. Or finals approaching. Schedule changes. Even a mixture of all the above. There is one thing that has caught…

Bursting Sponge
This week has been a brutal week. I’ve been absorbing everything like a sponge for too long and I finally burst. There was a while ago when I brought up the topic, “Depression, Suicidal thoughts without wanting to harm.” This is still the case but the intensity of wanting to self-harm has been…
Blindsided by a Nagging Injury
Why yes, it has been forever since I have updated. Basically since the site showed my last school assignment. While I hope you all can forgive me, I still feel like I have to give an explanation about my whereabouts. While, I am not comfortable and/or ready to get into the details about this injury….
Easing the symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (also known as PTSD) is a disorder I never knew I could relate myself too. However, after a massive incident, it forced me to realize how real and how critical this mental disorder could impact someone.
Depression, Suicidal thoughts without wanting to Harm
Bell Let’s Talk is back. It is a day, as you can remember from last year, that is really important to me. Now…I am about to go on a touchy subject. But, it has been one that has been bothering me for a long time. Last year I talked about my struggles with anxiety and…
Adrenal Fatigue Reload
The past few weeks I have been over tired. I think it started before Christmas. In December when I started a new job and my hours have been all over the place and I have not been able to keep up. Some days have been 1-2 hours of working. Other days I work 12-15. And…
Trapped in a World Pool of Thoughts
So…It seems like my last few posts have been about the mental state. But I honestly think the mental state determines a lot in someones health. Is it normal for someone to cry every night for absolutely no reason? I mean start off on the verge of tears and all of a sudden they…
Headaches/Migraines- Normal or Not?
Lately. I have been getting these massive headaches. Ones that I can’t even describe to someone. It is sharp stabbing, throbbing pain that is over my right eye and that side of my head. The narrow visions I have before it happens. The nausea, throwing up, body sweats…it’s all getting more progressive. If anyone knows…
Depression: Thoughts, Actions, Being worthless!
This is probably going to be one of the hardest posts I have ever had to write. But one that I need to get off my chest before it eats me up. Mental Illness is probably one of the biggest silent killers there is in the world. Yet one that nobody really knows how to…
Mental Illness and Complete relapse of Eating Disorder
Today is Bell Let’s Talk Day. A way to end stigma about Mental Health. And how it is taboo to talk about Mental Health. If you’ve been following this website you know the struggles I’ve been going through. I suffer from high anxiety which has been getting better. But sometimes I hit the point where…
Weird ass Symptoms? TMI Alert **
Has anyone ever gone through one of those days, weeks, months…where you are undergoing some weird ass symptoms that you have no idea where they have come from…Like you have got them maybe once in the past year and even at that point you were like what the f-…fluff… This has completely been me lately….
Binge eating; the relapse and addiction
*Heads up about this post…may not be suitable for all readers* Getting cleared from a binging disorder had been a huge accomplishment for me. Especially struggling with it longer than I can remember; and it impacting my everyday life. However, recovering was not as glamorous as I expected. Now…before getting into this I will talk…
