The Holidays
Let’s talk about the holidays. As a child, I loved them. Waking up Christmas morning to my mother singing while making breakfast has to be one of my many favorite memories that I have of her.

Let's Talk About Getting Back To Being Happy
One day I was roaming around Barnes & Noble when I came across a book that I knew I needed to purchase and read. Getting Back To Happy by Marc & Angel Chernoff has been a book that I have needed in my life for the past few months. I have struggled with depression, anxiety, insecurity, and trust issues for years. I’ve been in and out of treatment since high school. Two years ago, I went to an intense outpatient treatment program that got me back on track and has helped my life immensely.

A Part of My Story
It happens from time to time. This tightness in my chest. The feeling that I can't catch my breath. The racing thoughts that do not stop no matter what I do. The feeling that I am not really here but I know that I am here. The fear that if I go to sleep, I won't wake up in the morning. The desire to go out in public, but if I do, there is that fear that something is going to happen. The fear that everyone around you is talking badly about you & the feeling that no one likes you. It's all in my head. I've heard that phrase for so many years from so many different people. I've been through therapy more times than I can count. The moment I get reprimanded or someone points out that I am doing something wrong, I dwell on it. I lose sleep over it. I don't stop crying about it. I try to change myself and the way I approach something so it doesn't happen again. I obsess over the fact that I need to change and I do everything possible to change. I shut myself off from everyone around me. I stop talking. I put up a wall and stop letting people in because I do not want to be an annoyance in someone's life.
