Good mental health day today. Well, I'm good but also stuck, and I said to myself that I would never make the option to give up, and I still won't. Past few days were rough, and I feel the need to just say something real quick. I'm 24. I know you are no stranger when it comes to the grief process. This past Monday marked one year since I lost my Uncle David who my mom was close with to prostate cancer, and despite the grief, I do have mental health challenges because of my disability, spina bifida/hydrocephalus which causes fluid in the brain (the condition that singer Billy Joel was diagnosed with last year), and it is a challenge to live with causing anxiety and it affects my memory as well. Little fact about me, but all in all, I'm good. ❤️
I am not perfect nor will I ever claim to be, but I believe that God is perfect, and I'm grateful to God that I'm still here. I say all that to say I love you and you are an inspiration to me because I've been thinking about bringing more awareness about spina bifida (and I say that in the sense of becoming a speaker), and everything that I went through beyond that. I was shying away from that at first (as well as college) about 7 years ago, but I've slowly been circling back to just the whole speaker career thing.
For those who are reading this, and have anxiety, depression, etc. you are not alone. I see you. You matter.
