But I thought consumers werenโ€™t tasked with the additional costs from tariffs? Right? Isnโ€™t that what they kept saying? Itโ€™s an administration of contradiction

This is SO surprising. Absolutely no one shared concern about her ability to keep government military secrets

Come visit my latest post for a raw and real look into the life of someone with chronic suicidal thinking and cPTSD. Not for the faint of heart, but for those who feel alone (youโ€™re not), and for those who wonโ€™t shy away

A Saturday afternoon walk in the woods of a Vermont maple farm. Nico had a great time frolicking in the waterfalls and brooks

Beyond Hospitalization The Case for Suicide Prevention Reform

My new post is live! This was a deeply personal, but so important topic for me: Suicide prevention reform. If you have some extra time and would do me the honor of reading and sharing it, it would mean so much to me

If every day were like yesterday, I would be the most relaxed, non-anxious, happy person in the world. Alas, not every day is that way, soโ€ฆ here we are. Anxious and often sad :)

Ever try Pop Rocks for panic attacks? How about salt or lemons? For some people, they work way better than breathing techniques. Read more here: https://medium.com/@cornerstoneprs/unexpected-panic-attack-hacks-that-work-i-promise-7b0b2e594907

Unexpected Panic Attack Hacks That Work (I promise) When a panic attack hits, whatโ€™s the first thing you think about? Is it breathing? I bet itโ€™s breathing. Box breathing, diaphragmatic breathing, pursed lip breathing, alternate nostril breathingโ€ฆ

Rainy days are my favorite. They feel so calming and wash away the thoughts that can be so difficult to settle.

Dang. Iโ€™m in SEVT and itโ€™s been in the mid 50โ€™s, cloudy, rainy, and foggy all day. Not even a peak at sun. Jealous!

Itโ€™s free speech only when itโ€™s their speech being infringed upon. They donโ€™t believe in mental health until itโ€™s theirs being affected. They donโ€™t believe in big government until itโ€™s their government. If the DSM doesnโ€™t recognize it though, itโ€™s just another name in a long list of made up names

In the quiet, I find myself Settling Into Solitude
