It is ok to not understand

August 10, 2017 ~ ~ 1 Comment

"I constantly battle with my own thoughts every single day, yet no one will ever notice because I put a mask on my face. I know that I will never understand my own thoughts, and it's ok. Though it has caused a great amount of pain, I fight it every day with the same strength. … Continue reading It is ok to not understand

Autonomy

May 18, 2017 ~ mentalillnesstaughtme ~ Leave a comment

"Over ten years I began my battle with anorexia. I've lost and gained, literally and metaphorically. After a decade I'm proud to say I have finally entered treatment. For so long I was terrified of doctors, of being told what is "wrong" with me. I thought I could fix myself, and I got myself pretty … Continue reading Autonomy

November 6, 2016 ~ mentalillnesstaughtme ~ 4 Comments

Some people have daily goals, and I used to, until I changed it to daily reminders. I believe goals are what you want to achieve that you haven't achieved yet.

Control

June 22, 2016 ~ mentalillnesstaughtme ~ 4 Comments

​Control. I think that pretty much summed up my childhood. I learned at an early age that raw emotions weren't welcoming so I turned inward. Perfection was an unrealistic goal and I pushed to achieve it. I was very emotional and crying was thought of as a weakness. There aren't any "bad" emotions, just negative … Continue reading Control
