Dear Future Husband
Dear Future Husband, I hope this letter finds you in good health. You do not know who I am yet, but don’t worry because you have an entire lifetime of a marriage to get to know me. I do not know who you are or how you even look but I promise you that I love you so much that I’m willing to pour out my heart to you even before I get to know you!

What am I doing in Life?
The other day, I was lying on the couch gorging away on leftover pieces of cake, when I came across this Instagram post titled — “Famous people under 20”. After taking a pretty good look at that post, I forced myself up, but that piece of cake away, and started thinking.

Do people who write about Mental Health have it all figured out?
I mostly write about my struggle with OCD, and I often end up giving some insights in my articles about how to cope up with OCD. When I read my articles that have been published, I cannot help but feel that I and the girl who writes these articles are two different people altogether. Sometimes I feel as if I have this motivational, sunny side of me and then there’s the other drab, colorless side that decides to make an entrance every now and then. Today I was pounded by quite a few thought-provoking questions:

Tales from an OCD Mind
I do not like the person that I have become, I don’t even know what I like or don’t like anymore. Who am I, as a person? What do I value? It seems as if everything has been stripped away from me. Nothing makes sense anymore, and the things which aren’t supposed to make any sense in life are those that plague me day and night with a horrendous intensity.
