Embarrassment
Living with Anxiety: What I Wish People Understood About Me
I. The Face I Show, and the Storm Inside If you met me on the street, you'd probably think I’m doing okay. I smile. I make jokes. I go to work or school. I show up. But what you don’t see is what’s going on behind that smile — a mind running at full speed, always scared of something going wrong, even when everything seems fine.

My dog didn’t just fill the silence—he became my voice
There was a time in my life when silence wasn’t peaceful—it was painful. The kind of silence that gets into your bones. The kind that, after loss, after loneliness, after life, takes away those few voices that used to make you feel seen.

The Ones Who Never Learned to Numb
I’ve always admired people who can shut things off. The ones who can bury their emotions like they were never there. The ones who don't cry in public. The ones who can read the news and not flinch. The ones who can walk past a homeless man and not carry his story in their chest for the rest of the day.

I Took a DNA Test for Fun. What I Found Out Made Me Move Cities
I didn’t think twice when I ordered the DNA test. I wasn’t chasing some long-lost family mystery. I wasn’t adopted. I wasn’t even curious, really. It was just one of those impulsive decisions — like ordering sushi at midnight or downloading a sleep-tracking app I’d forget about in two days.
