How To “Show Yourself”
Note: I have no intention of doing a YouTube video on this. I have too many thoughts about it, it's more complicated than a craft tutorial, and I express myself much better in writing than I do talking.

Mental Health Check-In June 2020
Hi. I don't really know what I'm doing right now. I have too many feelings and they're much too big. I tried Zoloft for a couple months. It didn't help me. I've started a temporary anxiety medication before taking an off-brand of Wellbutrin and my anxiety has gone down so tremendously that I barely notice … Continue reading Mental Health Check-In June 2020
