Majestic Trips
Did you know depression was the main cause of disability? The world is in a state of sadness, and it shows. I wonder what has caused this and why it’s grown over time. It’s said about 280 million people in the world suffer from depression, so there’s never a need to feel alone. Medical News Today shed light on suicide being the fourth leading cause of death, these days. Mental health is vital, and I think it’s very important you find ways to cope in this life.

Depression and Me
Imagine this... You're alone at 3am on a Saturday night, reading an article on Buzzfeed about the most recent celebrity scandal. It is raining outside and your cat is snuggling peacefully beside you. Suddenly, you hear a terrible sound. The most gut wrenching sound you have ever heard in your entire life. Do you know what that sound is? Absolute Silence. I do not simply mean silence around you or outside. I mean the silence you get in your head, when you have no thoughts. When your mind is on the precipice of an existential crisis.

A guide to: Becoming
To really get to know me, we have to start at the begining. I don't have alot of memories but I will give you what I've got. I was born in the Pacific NorthWest to two young parents with now 3 daughters, no money and no clue. We lived on thrift store couches, free cable (the 90's were fun weren't they?) and Ramen noodles. My parents lived the romaticised broke life you see on TV where two kids run away with nothing but the clothes on their backs and are happy with just each other; for the first 4 years of my life.

A (kind of) Logical Approach to Emotion
Introduction January 5th, 2021 My mother once told me that when I was a child, all I would do is whine. I was a “very emotional baby and toddler.” Turns out some personality traits really don’t ever change, even as you reach adulthood. I mean sure, I can use my words now and I’m not throwing a tantrum because I can’t have a cookie, but the concept is the same.

Save Me From My Feelings
My mind use to be a place where I could be myself. Free of judgement, a way to escape the world I didn't want to be in. I was a spring growing up, I was strong, resilient, enpowered. Everything bad that had happened to me I was able to spring back like it never happened, while still trying my hardest to keep everyone around me happy. But when something really bad happened to me, this time I didn't spring back as much as I normally do. I wasn't able to use my own mind to escape...my mind had started changing, The grass was dying, the sun was going down for once, everything was being turned upside down. My mind was blue, but it was becoming black.
