A couple of weeks ago I had some news that really turned my world upside down a bit. I haven’t talked about it much because there is so much other stuff going on, but it’s been a struggle managing my emotions. I felt myself spiralling a bit, like I do every so often, usually whenContinue reading “Therapy is not just for picking up broken pieces”

To the you that feels too much.
Some days if not many, I feel like life is too much for me. Too problematic Too demanding Too stressful Too hard Too expensive Too ominous So I had a think about how I can break it down, because in all honesty I am all too often feeling as though I am one meltdown awayContinue reading “To the you that feels too much.”

Anxiety Behind The Screen!
My experience with anxiety is, or at least has, been a parody of Prozac Nation. Have you ever watched it?
