So why would I fall into a depression?

​

That was the million-dollar question that hit me about 3 years ago. I fell into a deep, dark hole and couldn’t see a way out. I started therapy, went on medication and my healing began. It was a long, hard, messy journey but I made it through. And I came out stronger than I ever thought possible.

All my life I have been a people pleaser, growing up in dysfunction, it was my way of surviving. I had never given consideration to my health, my emotions or feelings – I shoved that shit down deep to avoid any sort of conflict or chaos! Well, after 30 plus years of silencing myself, it erupted like a volcano. There was no more avoiding it. The time to deal with all the hurt, the trauma, the feelings and emotions that I ignored for decades had finally come to surface. 
I learned how to create little rituals within my day that had massive life changing results. I am able to find joy in the ordinary. I have peace and love in my heart.
