I left my husband when the pandemic hit
It was April of 2020 when I finally decided to leave my husband for good. I had no idea where I was going, but I was leaving it all behind for something new. Needless to say this was a difficult decision considering I had severe anxiety at the time.

A cure to all that ails you can be found in Iquitos, Peru
I am currently in Iquitos, Peru. Originally I had the idea to come here for a getaway and in my nativity thought, since I have not read or seen much about it on YouTube, that it would not be a hotbed of tourists.

THINGS FOUND AT ROCK STAR DEATH SCENES
THINGS FOUND AT ROCK STAR DEATH SCENES Some rock musicians are recognised as much for their flamboyant, premature, or just plain odd demises as for their great lives. Sadly, a rock star's lack of privacy often follows them into the afterlife since, as soon as they pass away, images, inquiries, and hypotheses surrounding their demise appear online. Fans will delve deeply into the stories behind the deaths of their rock idols today more than ever thanks to social media accessibility and humanity's age-old morbid fascination with death.

'Get the Guy', 'Make Him Yours' and Other Propaganda
As a teen raised on Disney fairytales and Hollywood romcoms, I always dreamt of meeting the one. The perfect partner that ticks off all of my boxes and matches me like a piece of a puzzle. Someone I'd feel we were meant to be together with and will live happily ever after.

My boss is a peace of shit
Do you ever just try so hard, and it’s never good enough ? This is that story. My boss seems to lack personal understanding, but I mean I guess all bosses do, maybe? They are usually power hungry people with nothing better to do but to make someone feel worthless. How can I blame them anyway ? They lack some sort of intelligence, or their ego has grown immensely since they don’t know any better. Either way we can all agree it’s wrong, right ? Or am I crazy ?

Before the Breathwork - Saturday The voices in my head are back. I’m aware that they are not real, but it doesn’t make what they say any less impactful. They claw at my head, at my mind, desperately reaching to drag me into the shadows, into the darkness, and leave me feeling alone, nothing, empty.

The last few days, for lack of a better term, have been a trip. After my very contemplative counseling session Thursday, I raced home to begin Sholder training. For those of you who don’t know, The Sholder Foundation is a transpersonal communication peer counseling app that offers a shoulder to those suffering with immediate mental health challenges. I had signed up to become a Sholder and what I hadn’t realized is that this workshop would ultimately change my perception of my own trauma, and in essence, my world view.

Hemophilia Can Make Sex Scary—But It’s Manageable
Hemophilia is an umbrella term for several lifelong conditions, each of which causes a deficiency in one of the 13 “clotting factors” in our blood. While this might sound like a good thing to people who only know about blood clots as major health risks, it’s a serious health problem. Low levels of even one factor make it hard for our bodies to form the healthy clots that stop bleeding—both from noticeable wounds and the tiny, often invisible injuries we often sustain simply by moving through life. At least 30,000 Americans live with some form of hemophilia—and that number is likely a serious undercount.

A Guide to Safer Sex for People With Vulvas
As is age-old tradition, my friends and I were out recently having drinks and talking about sex. One of them was thinking of sleeping with someone who has genital herpes and raised the question, somewhat sheepishly, to the council: How do you have safe sex with a person who has a chronic STI? Is it even possible?
