How I remain productive while deeply depressed
During my fight with depression, I had days where I felt that life has pretty much stopped completely. I may go a couple of weeks without showering. without eating. My apartment becomes a flipping disaster and the list goes on. Sometimes I can not manage to motivate myself to walk and fill my bottle of water to hydrate myself.

Dating For The First Time At 25
Many people would be surprised when I tell them that I have never dated any human beings before, and I am 25 years old. Many people would question the reasons behind this decision, as they find me to be well qualified to date, I am a graduate student in a prestigious school, my look is just fine if I am allowed to say so, and I have a deep understanding of love and romance.

A Letter About Life That Everyone Should Read
You don’t choose to have cancer. You don’t choose to be born poor, you don’t choose to have parents with criminal records, you don’t choose to be LGBTQ+. You don’t choose to have a physical or mental disability, you don’t choose to be born in an abusive family…you don’t choose all that, but you can choose to be happy. Embrace who you are and be happy — today before tomorrow.

Being a victim of homophobia as a kid
Whenever I have an anxiety attack, the first thing I do is to sit at the corner of my dark room and take the time to reflect on the reasons behind it. I question myself, my past and what lead me to this completely messed up state. I look at my past and the image of a terrified and shy kid comes to my mind.

A letter to my depression
Dear my depression, My calendar indicates that it is the first-year anniversary of your diagnosis. I am ambivalent about it. Today I stop and look at all the things you made me involuntary do, and the feelings you made my soul experience. I try to remember how this year went, but simply I can’t because you made my memory so weak that I struggle to remember any detail.

How I Gained My Social Freedom
Having social anxiety is a curse, a nightmare that’s hard to escape from. It can steal from the person his security, his ability to function socially and creates a lot of stress that can be paralyzing in different areas of life, whether it’s in school, in business and pretty much everywhere. You may experience anxiety attacks- in public, while you are with strangers, co-workers, classmates, bosses, teachers, and even with friends and family.
