    Not Everyone Suffers From Mental Illness, But Everyone Has Mental Health #GetLoud

    May 7, 2018

    Extremely common and damaging misconceptions: I have good mental health. After all, I don’t have a mental illness. People with mental illness and myself are fundamentally different. I don’t need to go out of my way to be kinder to myself or practice meditation or whatever. I don’t have a mental illness, so why should…

    What a nightmare. There are a million things whirling around in my brain, and my thoughts keep cycling over and over again. There are so many things I want to accomplish; so many ways I want to grow. But I feel trapped in my own what ifs and ultimately I am stagnated in my inaction.…

    Big List of Self-Care Date Activities For Those ‘Off’ Days

    April 2, 2018

    Alright, Nico. Why are you sitting around in bed? How useless. You’re wasting your time. Again. Why can’t you control your own thoughts and emotions? You know, rationally, that nothing will come of moping around all day. And yet. And yet. These are words I spoke to myself just the other day. I was having…

    6 Girl Boss YouTube Playlists for Mental Health & Wellness

    March 26, 2018

    I’ve been hooked on self-help and lifestyle videos recently. It started when I was in a depressive episode a few weeks ago and tried to climb out of it using what seemed to be the only distraction I could use – YouTube. The autoplay function served me well, because I turned on one video on…

    4 Steps to Process Negative Emotions

    February 26, 2018

    11 Cognitive Distortions for Students

    February 5, 2018

    I’m a university student in a program that has an admission requirement of a 90% average from grade 12 in high school. I absolutely love my program, but I have heard oh so often from my mental health professionals that it is a breeding ground for mental health issues. I attribute it to the fact…

Life is unpredictable, It changes with the seasons Life is unpredictable,
It changes with the seasons,
Even your coldest winter,
Happens for the best of reasons,
And though it feels eternal,
Like all you’ll ever do is freeze,
I promise spring is coming,
And with it, brand new leaves.
~ e.h (not my poem)

This has been a comfort to me in this turbulent period of my life. I keep this near me as a reminder that spring is coming, no matter what. 🌸
