Fighting for Sanity
Photo taken by contributor Jaeda DeWalt, a conceptual self-portrait artist in her forties from Seattle, Washington. Jaeda’s battles with mental illness hearken back to her earliest memories, at age 4, when she became obsessed with the number four and performed exhaustive rituals in patterns of four. She struggled with her mental health throughout her childhood and teen years until her late twenties when […]

Anxiety is
Anxiety is my 3yo niece biting her arm when she’s uncomfortable because she doesn’t know how to react Anxiety is my mom pulling her fingers through her hair until I hold her hand to stop her when she has too many things to do and not enough time Anxiety is my dad trying to close […]
The Long Road to Recovery
I felt it was about time for an update. A lot has happened, a lot stays the same. I still have depression and anxiety, but things have improved here and there. I do not spend every day in bed, every day is not a struggle. I actually have times where I feel hopeful, I have […]

Have Anxiety? Avoid Sugar. Here’s Why.
Sugar… it’s not great for your mental health. Obviously, there are good sugars (those you find in fruits, etc.), but there is lots of bad sugar (sugar added to our foods, found in our beverages, and our “treats”). So, let me talk briefly about my recent experience with sugar. A month or so ago, my […]

Justifying Crazy: What I Haven’t Told Anyone About My Mental Illnesses
*This article may contain triggering content. Readers view at their own discretion. It was at age fourteen, as we left the doctor’s office with a spare K10 test, a diagnosis of three mental illnesses, a referral to a psychologist and a prescription for Fluoxetine, that my parents said “it’s probably best to keep quiet about […]
Anxiety speaks
Song of the day: “Hey Alice” – Rachel Rose Mitchell I’m feeling restless, and it won’t go away. I’m trying to find something to do to ease the anxiety. Colour in a colouring book? No. Knitting? No. People who can actually ease their anxiety through such activities can’t have very severe anxiety. I’ll probably get […]

I Want to Spend My Friday Night Watching Netflix.
I’m an introvert and pretty shy. I will avoid hanging out with friends in public because I’d much rather be chilling at home. It’s not that I’m super socially awkward, I really just get tired when I have to socialize too much. It’s exhausting. Pretty much all my life I have liked to spend my […]

Up early
I’m still up. 1:45AM. It’s a classic sleepless night before an early morning. My thought patterns are awful and I just want to sleep. Everything is loud in my head. I need to stop thinking. The noisy ac unit. The tireless helicopter looking for more poor people to fine and imprison. The bones of a ceiling […]
Depression
It feels like a blanket of darkness falls upon you. You are unable to see the future, nor know what to do, how to react. You procrastinate, things don’t get done. You panic. You know you’re suppose to sort your shit out but for some weird reason there is this lack of energy you have that […]
