I love to travel, adventure and exploring. Turns out, I also love writing. I recently published my first book "A Depressed Woman's Sarcastic Take on Life," and am working on several others! I look forward to learning from other writers!

All The World is a Psychologist. Content Warning.
Everyone knows how to fix depression. Everyone. It is truly amazing. You don’t need a medical degree, a mastery of human behavior or cognitive development, a therapist license or to even know someone who has depression. Everyone has the answer. Your second cousin’s friend Bob has a coworker whose wife’s mother’s great aunt has depression, so they know what you need to do. I tried all the answers, and I am here to tell you that Great Auntie Agatha Ophelia doesn’t know any more about fixing me than your second cousin’s friend Bob’s dog .

Bubbles, Needles, Poop and Other Related Things. Content Warning.
I woke in my college dorm room my junior year and lay still, unable to force myself out of bed. It was five in the evening and I had slept all day. My teeth were unbrushed, my hair and body unwashed and I hadn’t eaten. It didn’t matter. Nothing mattered. The deep darkness in my mind won out and I let myself sink back into a restless sleep. I succumbed to one darkness in order to escape another.
