Anxiety Update
I hit a brick wall recently when it came to my writing as my anxiety has been very active for the past month or so now and it's made getting along with work, socialising, doing my habits/hobbies and what not very challenging. I've been on a writing break because I just cannot write when my … Continue reading Anxiety Update

Writing Therapy
I’ve always enjoyed writing, even in school I enjoyed my English classes, I wasn’t the best at it, but it was something I secretly enjoyed. Once I left school I didn’t really do any writing. I wrote assignments for college but that was more of a chore than anything else and I used to always … Continue reading Writing Therapy

Commitment
Commitment. It’s a fairly big word with a big meaning. To commit to something or someone means you are dedicated. You’re in it for the long term whether it is a relationship, a job or owning a pet. You are committed to that thing. I have commitment issues that I joke about all the time … Continue reading Commitment
What A Decade
There is no doubt that mental health has been on one hell of a ride this decade. For me, I started off this decade by attempting suicide, self-harming, I was severely depressed and I had a firm hand on my self-destruct button up until last year. I’m now here clear minded, traumas processed, I see … Continue reading What A Decade
