Learning to Adult

You see all these things on social media about being an adult. I remember one where it was a sticker chart for adults. If you’ve seen it, you’ll know. I do think it is hard growing up and wish there was a rule book sometimes. I remember when I was younger, I always thought byContinue reading “Learning to Adult”

Only D***heads Overdose!

This was a text that I received from my partner when his brother had taken an overdose. This stuck with me because I feel like many people feel like this. Even after the media trying to bring attention to people’s mental health and the crisis that there is in this current day. I can seeContinue reading “Only D***heads Overdose!”

The Instagram Effect . .

You may have realised by now I have negative views to social media. Yes, I’m still active on it but I do sometimes have to remind myself that it isn’t healthy. The need to compete with others and show that you are “#living the best life” is scary. And I have fallen into that trapContinue reading “The Instagram Effect . .”

IContinue reading “Green Fingers”

Jigsaws …

It is a very strange one but if you have been there then you will know! Just after I had my break-down I felt like I could not even make a cup of coffee without messing it up. To be somewhere like that in your life it is extremely hard; You can’t see the lightContinue reading “Jigsaws …”

Behind The Mask

These days going out can be really challenging. People in their masks and people without all feel like a similar threat. You can’t see peoples smiles but then when you do you think to yourself ‘why are they not wearing a bleeding mask!!’. This is all I seem to think when sitting on a bus.Continue reading “Behind The Mask”
