Today is going to be a day…I can already tell. My body is tense, my head feels cloudy, I’m waiting for the tears to fall. I want them to fall, I want to scream. Yet, I sit here feeling almost numb. Numb because my brain is trying to push away my anxious thoughts, to hide... Continue Reading →
The new “normal”
I know it has been awhile but trying to gather my thoughts and writing them down has been a bit of a mess. Dealing with SO many new emotions, it has been hard for me. My own general anxiety that I have lived with for years, can be debilitating. But I never imagined I'd be... Continue Reading →
A real honest look inside
Do you know what it’s like to feel like you’re not good enough? That no matter what you do it won’t be enough. YOU won’t be enough. That so many people have left your life with no explanation that you get used to it. You get used to being forgotten about. You get used to... Continue Reading →
Anxiety is a part of me
Tears running down my face. You know the ones that mark your sweater with black dots because you thought it would be a good idea to wear mascara today. They leave a trace of black specks down your cheek because you thought you could hold it together today. But now your eyelashes are all clumped... Continue Reading →
Soul Searching
I’m sitting here staring at my computer screen, trying to figure out how to untangle the thoughts I have. I feel like I have so much to say but where do I start? Do I start with something I’ve been struggling with for months, something I love that seems to now be too much for... Continue Reading →

Chaos, Risk & Reward
I know it’s been awhile and a lot has happened. I’ve only told a few of my closest friends what happened and my family of course. But I’m ready now to talk about it here. A week ago, today my world was rocked. It felt like a typical Friday morning, and then I got the... Continue Reading →
I’m still here
You know what's hard? Telling yourself to keep going even after another setback has come into your path. Another roadblock to defer you into the unknown. After facing roadblocks and setbacks you find yourself wandering alone looking for those who said they'd never leave you alone in the dark. But time has passed and they've... Continue Reading →
Selflove and a nonstop fight
Living with anxiety I find myself apologizing for being the way I am or the way I do things. Today, is a perfect example. I texted my mom apologizing for being "a lot lately" while dealing with my concussion and everything that came with it. I've been through a lot since June, and I've been... Continue Reading →
It’s all in my head
I wish I could say it's been easy. I wish I could say I had it all figured out. But living with post-concussion syndrome, on top of my anxiety and depression, OH and the holidays...has kicked my butt. Every day I wake up, not knowing if I'll be dealing with an all-day headache, or if... Continue Reading →
