Today is World Suicide Prevention Day. Even as someone who has struggled with depression and anxiety, my mental health is somewhat of a mystery to me. Sometimes depression looks like isolating yourself from people for weeks or months. Sometimes it’s asking to stay the night at a friends house until you feel safe enough to …

Let’s start at the very beginning.
On August 26, 2014, I stepped foot into my counselor’s office for the first time. This wasn’t my first go around, but one size does not fit all when it comes to counseling. I tried again and I’m so thankful I did. Besides God, she’s been the one constant in my life over the last …
