My Year

You can’t drive before you fix your wheels - Sadhguru

Last year, I experienced the darkest days of my life, it was so dark that It terrified me, if I could ever get myself out of that place. I spent 24 hours, 7 days a week, for months trapping myself in my room forcing myself to sleep as sleep was the closest thing to death, it was hard to understand the emotions I felt and harder to explain them to my love ones. It was hard smiling to hide it from others and it was hard when I could see my family worried sick asking me what was wrong but it was harder to not be able to answer.

I breathe proud to be here today, a year later watching this video I recorded on January 2019 as a step towards recovery with therapy. It’s been the hardest journey of my life to have experienced what I did but what I find more beautiful is how strong I’ve become and how powerful I feel today to be able to be the hand, I wish I had for others during their darkest time. October 2019 Has been powerful in ways I can’t explain and the people who I’ve been able to connect, understand and heal makes me excited for this new journey I’m welcoming and making it as my life’s purpose. Mental health is a silent killer, that kills the soul of living body, I nearly lost close friends and myself to this but Today I vow to use my journey and myself as a reason to not give up. To keep fighting and to share and help others heal this pain that we all carry. 10/10/2019 Mental Health awareness
