Writing About Health and Mental Health
Before writing about health, I was talking about health issues. Everyone does this. We wonder if we are eating the right things, or why we have skin problems, or aching joints. Usually, the best thing to do is just get enough sleep, eat a balanced, nutritious diet, and exercise regularly. Don’t stress yourself out. If you are a medical practitioner, it is easy to write about health. But even if you are no expert, the internet is an important resource for you to learn the facts you need to know to write a good article.

Party Is Over
You know the feeling. We’ve all been there. It’s a Saturday afternoon, there are no clouds in the sky and you are happily chilling in your living room. You have nothing to do and it feels so good. Suddenly, one tiny little thought tiptoes from a remote place and shows up in your mind. He smiles and waves at you. “What do you want?” You ask him, rolling your eyes. And before you know it, his pals arrive. Like, a lot of them. What a popular fellow. And you didn’t even know you were hosting a party! Here they come high school pals, university pals, pen pals, work pals, gym pals... You name it. A whole bunch of thoughts join him and start racing like crazy.

Surviving Mental Illness
I was born this way. It may not have shown immediately, but it did show over time. My mom had it first. She had a horrific childhood and when she grew up she became mentally ill. Perhaps, like me, she was ill all along and didn't know it. She would heard voices, and see hallucinations. The difference was she didn't know it wasn't real, I did.

Being a Bad Bitch with Mental Health Issues
Depression is something I've struggled with for a long time. I've been to many different therapists since I was 13, and I now take anti-depressants to help me cope. Some days are a real struggle to find joy in anything, to even get up out of bed. Some days are amazing and I feel like the most bitchin' power women out there.
