Who Am I?

Who am I? This was a post that originally was going to be an introduction of who I am as it's been a while since I've formally introduced myself (that's if I ever introduced myself in the first place which I am not sure I did.) However, as I began writing, the weight of this simple yet actually complicated question grew and I realised that I don't know the answer. 

I am tired. 

Not the type of 

fatigue that is from 

late nights or being busy, 

the type of tired 

where every wave that 

hits my back 

knocks my soul 

a little too hard 

and I've forgotten how 

to swim, so this, 

this is now a waiting game 

either for the water to 

reclaim me or 

for a life boat to 

find me.

Why is it Time to Talk?

1st of February marks an important day in the mental health world, Time to Talk. I wanted to explore why it is important to talk and the impact that a conversation can have. I was 16 when I had my first proper conversation about my mental health. I found my head of year at school, someone with whom I had created quite a bond and I shared that I was self harming. A secret that I had been carrying on my skin and heavily on my shoulders, was taken off me as I no longer needed to guard this secret so tightly. From that day on there were several conversations that saved me over the years. Some where in the form of emails, a Skype call or a face to face conversation. Each conversation was more important than words can describe.
