It’s been nearly six years now since I started my Blog. I had already been sharing my journey for some time by then on my personal social media pages and I was receiving such an outpouring of positive response from it that I decided to take it one step further. My goal that day was to try and reach a broader audience and gain more exposure.
My Blog has since reached every Continent around the globe and has allowed me to make so many incredible connections.
Mental illness knows no boundaries.
My mind on any given day is usually going approximately 100 km an hour but writing allows me to slow it down. Being able to express my own personal vulnerabilities to the world has saved me time and time again. Knowing that by sharing my journey has inspired so many people and helped so many more feel less ashamed and alone is truly all the adrenaline I need which is why writing has become my drug of choice, both literally and figuratively.
I have learned so much about myself through my Blogging. I have become a better writer because of my Blogging. I have gained so much more knowledge and understanding about mental illnesses due to my Blogging and most importantly I have opened up so many critical conversations because of my Blogging.
It has given me purpose.
I reached a new milestone on my Blog site this week. I was notified that I had published my 1000th Blog post. I felt very proud when I received the notification of my accomplishment; and as my Gen Z kids all tell me, it’s pretty darn “Slay”!
