Lately, I've been Decluttering my space. Like a lot. So much so, in fact, my mom was actually worried about me. But she should have been the opposite - she should have been happy for me. For decluttering and getting rid of unnecessary things is wonderfully healthy for the mind. I'm still surprised that I've… Continue reading Extensive Decluttering & The Mind

How to Get Out of a Low Mood
The other day, I'd been in a low mood, hence the "when I'm low" post before this one. But I've worked hard to get myself out of that low mood. As a seasoned person with anxiety and depression, I'm used to low moods. But that also means I've gathered tools to get myself out of… Continue reading How to Get Out of a Low Mood
When I’m Low…
I hit the snooze button, over and over again. I snap and lash at my partner and my family. I eat a lot. Or not enough. I procrastinate. Then I beat myself up for being unproductive. I cry, a lot. I tell myself that I'm this and I'm that, only using the ugly words, of… Continue reading When I’m Low…

Today, I just wanted to talk freely about my problem with comparisons. When I say comparisons, I mean comparing where you're at in your life to where other people are. Comparing what you've done or what you have to other people. Getting jealous or angry or bitter about what you think you lack. I have… Continue reading Let’s Talk About Comparisons
Missing Sunglasses Metaphor
Today, I've been squinting to the point of a headache due to accidentally leaving my sunglasses at home. It gave me a dreadful headache and dry eyes and generally put me in an even worse mood than I already was, which ruined what could have been a nice day. But the sunglasses were in my… Continue reading Missing Sunglasses Metaphor

“There’s No Room” – Poem
There's no room to grow, Within these four walls. These hallowed halls, Ring too loudly Of the past. There's no room to breathe, Among these toxic fumes, That have been festering, For years, Within the minds Of my family. There's no room to heal, When the black clouds do grow, Casting a shadow… Continue reading “There’s No Room” – Poem
