Hridya SharmaPublished 10 days ago in PsycheHow My Life’s Purpose to Have an Unbreakable Heart Left Me Broken in Life
Ever noticed how people who are afraid of having their heart broken often end up feeling broken? Until recently, that was the case for me anyway. I was always striving to have an unbreakable heart — but never quite succeeded. What did it mean for me to “have an unbreakable heart”? For one, it meant that I was always trying to protect my heart from everything and everyone. I thought I could achieve that by not letting anything or anyone in. You’ve probably heard about the concept of “building walls around your heart”. That’s what I was doing. I built high, wide, fortified walls around my heart — walls that would even make the Great Wall of China look small.

Moharif YuliantoPublished 13 days ago in PsycheCutting the Red Tape: Understanding the Connection Between Depression and Addiction
Depression, with its intricate web of emotions and experiences, manifests uniquely in each person it touches. Yet, amidst the complexity of symptoms, one crucial sign of depression often slips through the cracks: addiction and substance abuse. Growing up in a family in which addiction was seemingly woven into our DNA, I've come to understand how addiction can create a deceptive veil. Too often, I watched a concoction of parties, loud music, and substance abuse mask the silent suffering of loved ones' depression, tucking it away slyly under the guise of revelry.
Rebekah CrawleyPublished 18 days ago in PsycheWhat is Borderline Personality Disorder?
Borderline personality disorder is a mental disorder characterized by unstable moods, behaviors, and relationships, and it usually involves general instability, impulsivity, relationship difficulties, intense fears of abandonment and rejection, distorted self-image, and often self-harm. I wanted to make this video to kind of break down what borderline is, how to manage it and cope with it if you struggle with it, and if you don’t personally struggle with it, but you know someone who does, how you can help them. I was inspired to write this article based on an interaction I had in the comments on YouTube, so thank you to that viewer for the inspiration.
