Addiction…my bitch
Photo by Maria Orlova on Pexels.com Sitting here listening to Red Table Talk, “Kelly Osbourne Comes Clean” episode, and “wow” what a great reminder of the power of addiction. There are so many great quotes that I could not help but share and re-numerate on the hold it has had in my life through her... Continue Reading →
Another Day…to Contemplate
Photo by Andrea Piacquadio on Pexels.com Yea, this picture, this is exactly what it feels like to be in my head on any given day. Contemplation over every single thing. Every single person. Every thought and emotion contemplated over and over and over again. Start…no stop. Do…no just be…still. My mind goes one million miles... Continue Reading →
Something Sacred is at Stake
I have sat silent out of respect for the massive amount of loss all around us. Sickness, death, solitude, and desperation are everywhere. We are scared, tired, hopeless and terrified. Time has lost all meaning; when does it end, how does it end...there are no answers. We have been given no choice but to sit,... Continue Reading →

Why is it taboo to talk about therapy? What is the shame in our mental health? We talk about mammograms, menopause and colonoscopies without hesitation. It makes zero sense to me and that is why I do talk and about it and will talk about it. Mental Health therapy is no different than physical therapy... Continue Reading →
Medication or Meditation?
Medication or Meditation...that is the question. Or is it? It is astonishing to me how many people have reached out to me after posting "The Smiling Faces of Depression" and to date the "mental health" tags in my blogs have received far more views than any other subject matter. It is clear that I have... Continue Reading →
His creed…
I started my morning watching an interview on Nightline with Scott Stapp. Scott Stapp was the lead singer of Creed, a very popular group from the 90's and best known for the song he co-wrote With Arms Wide Open. I was definitely a fan of their music, and still am. Allow me to segue for... Continue Reading →
