Bio

Im no licensed therapist, just experienced in pain


The things I post may never go viral, the words I write will probably only be seen & appreciated by a few.. but if someone can take one or two things away from what I have to say that’s all that matters. My thoughts are unorganized, my brain is messy, I don’t have the answer on how to change your life. What I can offer to you is support, understanding, love & and words of encouragement. I dare you to open your mind, to try something new. If you want something you’ve never had you had to do something you’ve never done. The courage & strength is already inside of you. The person you want to become is, too. Ask yourself if you’re willing to lose people & things you “think” you want & need in order gain what is meant for you. Stop trying to FIND yourself & start RECREATING yourself. The only person in the way of becoming your best self is you. ❤️

...See more I just found this post from April I had wrote in a group on *** I created. I wanted to share with all of you as well❤️ (Of course the photos won’t post on here, but you get the point) ✨about to get really raw with you guys for a minute, because this is a subject more than half of people can relate to but won’t talk about✨ When I tell you there’s more days than not that I feel like my head is barely above water, that my mind is my worst enemy, that I literally cannot breathe to the point I don’t understand how I’m gonna live everyday in this state of mind.. it’s hard. My whole life I’ve always been the goofball.. the ditzy, silly, wild girl that people either loved or thought of me as “too much” It was a mask I wore like makeup. Behind that mask was a scared, hurt, angry little girl.  Im diagnosed with bipolar disorder (manic depression) severe anxiety, PTSD, i deal with trauma that runs from my childhood up to my adult life, and am a recovering drug addict.  To whoever has read this far down & is thinking this is too much personal information to share publicly & wondering what the point is behind this post, you’re right it is a lot. More than most people might read. The purpose of this post is for those who have a voice, but are silently struggling because they are made to feel as if nobody is listening. To those who have been made to feel as if what they are going through & how they feel is unimportant because what someone else is going through is “worse”.. to those who have been saying “I’m fine” when they are screaming on the inside. To the ones that still have nightmares about what happened & to the ones that won’t let anyone know the real person inside because of the scars & damage from someone else.  You’re not alone. You’re not crazy.  I’m not a miserable person. To be so self aware & have such an open mind to the world, to be the most positive, full of life person yet feel so fearful, hopeless, & deeply dark all at once in one body is physically and mentally painful. But these pictures i decided to share from this morning are so beautiful to me. This was the first time in a long time I felt absolutely 100% at peace & I was just me. Simply being. My thoughts were calm. I felt so alive & like a person, not in a category of all the endless emotions I feel at war with on a daily basis.  I hope this post reaches the right person. If you know, you know. ❤️  I hope you find your way to speak up & find an outlet that works for you.
Actually, Life Is Beautiful and I Have Time.

...See more It’s so easy to get caught up in day to day life that we get stuck on auto pilot without even realizing it. Between work life, house chores, & trying to get everything in between caught up & together, we tend to overlook the things that really matter.  Feeding Our Souls.  When’s the last time you did something for yourself? Think about the things or places that bring out the best version of yourself. How often do you put off self care because you’re “too busy”?  The older I get, I realize seconds are flying by like months. When I’m feeling down, I know my soul is hungry. I feed mine by spending time in nature, sitting by the ocean connecting with the universe, and I notice my self awareness grows stronger again & im able to actually be present in the moment, in the now. Life is too short to just exist, so start living.   The dishes can wait. You can fold the clothes later. Go explore this beautiful world & enjoy the little things about life that gives you goosebumps & butterflies.

...See more Reaching out for help & support does not make you weak, it shows courage & that you are willing to better yourself & try something new. Do more things you love, that make you feel alive. We spend so much time stressing over the future & dwelling about the past that we’re missing out on the present moment, which should be used to create & enjoy the life we want & deserve. It’s okay to be sad, to cry, to lose ourself for awhile. Let yourself feel it, grieve whatever or whoever it is that is causing you pain, then breathe & let it go. Take the time you need but learn from it, it happened so that you can grow into the person you’re supposed to be. The best version of you is already inside of you, just waiting for you to realize your self worth & take action to becoming who your meant to be. One day you will look back & understand why certain things didn’t work out, things you thought you always wanted were replaced with things you never dreamed possible. The wounds you thought would never heal built a person you never dreamed of becoming. The nights you thought you’d never make it through have turned into years you fought through.. time goes by & one day it hits you.. You overcame obstacles even when you didn’t know how you did it.. You’re a survivor. The fighter was always in you. You held on, and you made it. 💫
