“I want to write but I have nothing to write about,” I said to my mom. “Brittany, you always have something to write about,” she replies. Hmm. What to write about. I start a few rough drafts but nothing really feels right. It’s just not working for me. “Why not?” I think to myself. Because […]
An Open Letter to My Psychiatrist
Dear Psychiatrist, It was an ordinary appointment. Nothing special at all. Until the end. When you said you had something to tell me. Then I got scared. Not because I didn’t know what was coming, but because I did. I knew what you were going to say before you said it. “I’ve been given a […]
Real Life
It’s been a little bit longer than I’d like to go between posts, but I have a good reason. I promise. I’ve been on vacation! I brought my computer along to get some writing in, but I think I might have opened the thing once. So no writey writey on the bloggy bloggy. My grandparents […]
Just Not Today
I’m going to be honest with you. I’ve been struggling. When I was experiencing that intense anxiety a few weeks ago, I had a hard time eating. My stomach was a mess. Well my anxiety is better, but I guess I got into some bad habits. Eating full meals is a challenge again. And it’s […]

That’s why these things need to be said. My last post made me pretty vulnerable. So vulnerable that I waited almost a full week before publishing it on Facebook. I was afraid […]

Wanting something more. I was sitting in my psychiatrist’s office the other day feeling slightly annoyed with all the stupid questions he […]
Messy is Neat
My parents and Skylar are in Georgia visiting my brother and his family. I’m happy for them, I’m just a little bummed out that I couldn’t be there, too. Treatment gave me a lot, but it also stole all my vacation time. So I had to sit this one out. I miss my people. Alone […]
Wheat in the Wind
Despite being out of “full time treatment” for several months now, I still spend a lot of time in Towson. I have regular therapy on Tuesdays and see my dietician and art therapist on Wednesdays. Plus my psychiatrist once a month-ish. When it comes up in conversation, people sound surprised. I’ll admit it’s annoying. Some […]
