I am an individual living with mental illness who felt hopeless for so long in pursuing the idea of perfect mental health. Once I started accepted that mental health gets, "Better, not perfect" I was able to start down a journey of healing. I hope to spread this message with the intent of sharing with people my story of having diagnoses that I felt defined me and how I have been able to heal.

    BPD & Me: Fear of Abandonment

    BPD & Me: Fear of Abandonment

    In this episode I discuss the symptom of fearing abandonment in those who live with BPD. As I discuss this often evolves due to not having had the proper nurture and consistent care as an infant, thereby, not being able to trust others. However, you can never be abandoned by your current caretaker (Hint hint: yourself).
