Mental health is an important topic that gets swept under the rug far too often. People do not talk about these types of illnesses — or even their thought processes! — simply out of fear of being judged or misunderstood. It is totally understandable, but this needs to stop.

So, there was no way you could lose control in the first place...
Something happened last week that marked a change in my life. It wasn’t a soul crushing or earth shattering occurrence. Yet, I can still clearly look back & see where the proverbial line in the sand was drawn: Everyone is judging you. Depending on who you ask, I might be crazy. But I urge you to hear me out anyway.
