Invisible Illness, Visible Impact.. Content Warning.
Have you ever heard of a condition that affects 1 in 10 women worldwide? That’s about 176 million women, give or take a few million. Not a big deal, right? I mean, it’s just a chronic illness with no known cure, takes on average 8 years to diagnose, and turns women lives upside down. Symptoms? Just your regular debilitating pelvic pain, chronic fatigue, painful intercourse, and digestive issues — nothing that a weekly yoga and a green vegan smoothie can’t fix, right? Oh, and it’s one of the top three causes of female infertility. So yeah, it only can affect your body, mind, relationships, career, and overall quality of life. Nothing major. Any guesses on what it is?

Terror In The ER Waiting Room Reminds Me Why I Am Pro-Choice. Content Warning.
It Took Me Two Weeks. The pressure in my pelvis was dismissed as a symptom of my PCOS for two weeks before I gave in and decided to go to a doctor. I had a rough menstrual cycle at the beginning of September, so I figured I had an active cyst. No big deal, since I am very familiar with the process of 'riding it out.'

Self-Love Can Be A Finicky Business
I was made fun of a lot as a kid because of my physical appearance. My last post was a lamentation detailing my futile efforts to figure out self-love. I picked the concept apart, but that brought confusion. I asked questions to readers hoping to receive clarity, like whether changing my physical appearance in order to hide it or enhance it is self-love or self-hate.

Harmonies of the Past
I love listening to music, if possible, all day long, even if it's just quietly playing to keep me company. And I can only sleep well when I'm listening to music. I keep switching radio stations, browsing through Spotify profiles, and even checking out YouTube channels. Music has always been a part of my life, for as long as I can remember.
