The diary of a evolving adult
I think healing, and overcoming the damage done to my brain and soul, is something of a stair case. An immeasurably long and broken staircase that seems to wind and back track on itself somehow. On each landing is a door leading to some obstacle I have to combat and face. Im getting there. I … Continue reading One stair at a time
Well, I think finally acknowledging what Im actually feeling and analyzing how Im reacting and why has finally put me on the path to getting the frik out of dodge and getting over the whole mess that wasnt even a real relationship. I just needed someone to call me out. Someone to get me to … Continue reading Finally healing and letting go
Here we go again, starting like I think every single one of these things does...with a whole lot of self reflection coupled with a bit of an update. I dont honestly even remember where I left off. Was it before my bday or after? I feel like it might have been before as I know … Continue reading Maybe it’s me?
There's a weird trend in society right now. Everyone wants to be mentally ill. Everyone wants to be 'neurodivergent.' News flash: you are. But the way all these young people cling to the term is starting to drive me a little bit crazy. See the irony there? I suppose it comes back to that whole … Continue reading Light, Dark and labels
You are not the darkness you endured. You are the light that refused to surrender. This is another one of those posts that's been weeks in the making. I seem to really struggle to write when Im not broody or upset about something. Maybe this blog will fade away at some point since it's not … Continue reading In the light
I think life, and society, operates on some sort of a pendulum; swinging constantly from one extreme to the other. I think we're on a swing back to the patriarchy and I dont like it. It's taken me a good while to try to compose my thoughts on this because, like everything even a little … Continue reading Metoo, Mentoo and the Mob
So Ive been having thoughts, such as an overthinker tends to do, mostly related to the status of women, the roles they choose and all that jazz. Ive come to realize that my wordpress reader is somehow flooded with "relationships tips for women" and articles such as "what are you doing wrong in bed?" now … Continue reading Countenance
Feels like it's been forever and that lots has happened when really not much has actually changed since my last post. Or rather lots changed and now Im back to where I was when I last posted. If that makes sense. The dragon came and went for his final strike. I dont even remember how … Continue reading Catching up
It's crazy to me how much harder it is to get my thoughts out on paper, so to speak, when I feel whole and happy. I wonder why that is? I wonder why that lost, messy, version of me found pouring herself out on paper was so easy or if she will ever even reappear … Continue reading Kintsugi
And so things continue. I came to a realization today while talking to one of the young girls at work. While I internally feel like quite the mess when Im home alone with just my thoughts, outwardly Im the picture of confidence. I used to think I was faking it. Even so recently as the … Continue reading Duality
