My Thoughts on “Bikini Body” Season
Written by Kristy Cloetingh, Blogger & Advocate Where I live in New York City, summer is quickly approaching.

Although I love snow and went to school in Indiana (lake effect snow […]

How Change Changed Me
Written by Lizzie Elsberg, Blogger & Advocate I don’t know many people who truly like change…I know I certainly do not.

Sometimes we may […]

Without You
Written by Charlotte Sandy, Blogger & Advocate This month, it will be five years without you. Five years of moving through the waves of grieving a person society tells me I shouldn’t grieve. Who grieves the loss of a therapist, anyway? Mental health organizations and professionals always voice a message of hope: “Therapy can provide […]

Let's be kinder to those struggling with any type of addiction. No matter if it be alcohol, cocaine, opioids, heroine, cigarettes, marijuana, food, self harm, sex, shopping, stealing, etc. .. an addiction is defined as a physical or psychological need / habit formed. Blame should never be placed upon someone who gets caught up in addictive behaviors / substance abuse. Never does an addict plan to get sick. And so again, let's all be kinder to those struggling. ❤️ #whereistand #hopeheals #mentalhealth #mentalillness #addiction #selflove #recovery #endstigma #fighters
