Daily Prompt 3
What’s your favorite thing about yourself? I love myself as a mom. I feel like I’m still a kid, mentally, but that I was forced to grow up in some aspects… Grow up in the best ways. I’m suddenly someone’s default role model and I have to try to forgive myself for not being perfect. Continue reading

Sleep Deprivation: 0/10, Would Not Recommend
I think I have figured out a great source of the anxiety and depression I struggle with everyday. I’m going to map it out, and it will probably seem obvious to an outsider.

The Beginning.
This is beginning of something. Of what? I’m not sure. It’s as if something was set in motion last month. Maybe it started before that? Two weeks ago, my mom found me in Barnes & Noble after we had split ways, searching out new books. She declared that she was buying me a book. A Continue reading
