I want to be healthy and strong and not give even the smallest of fucks about what people think

Keywords: {0}

I always say I don’t care what people think of me so why am I so concerned with my weight and how I look. But I read something today about the shame that women feel about their bodies, despite the absolute fucking slog they go through every day of their lives. It made me think – I’m probably right when I say I don’t really care what other people think but maybe I care what I think and maybe that is shame. Do I feel ashamed because I’m “fatter” than most people around me? Do I feel ashamed because my stomach that was home to two beautiful babies for 9 months (absolutely fucking huge babies might I add) isn’t flat? I mean it isn’t even round, I don’t know what shape it is! Do I feel ashamed that I weigh more than my partner? Do I feel ashamed when I eat something “bad”?

I want to share what I go through on a day to day basis so others will be able to see that there is no shame in having a mental illness and that you can live your life

Keywords: adhd , anxiety , bipolar , c-ptsd , depression , help , mental health , mental illness , resources , your not alone

I also want to be able to show those that are not struggling what it is like so that they can have a better understanding of us. I want to break the stigma.

I became a therapist so that people who feel judged by therapists or ashamed that they need support can feel safe to open up

Keywords: {0}

I have learned that therapy is a technology not unlike ministry for the secular world. And like that clergyman who found me sleeping on bench in front of the cathedral, I want to help the people he can’t reach. I’m here for people feel judged and afraid to enter into a relationship with a therapist. I’ve never been ‘normal’. I’ve never been perfect. And, I’ve learned to be ok with who I am.

I want to be a “Whole Hearted” person

Keywords: forgiveness , Happiness , joy , mindfulness , shame

These are people who get real about things, they accept vulnerability, they admit their mistakes, they practice mindfulness, have the difficult conversations that need to happen and recognize that we, meaning each and everyone of us, are dealing with the same things. They recognize that we have shared human experiences with a variety of issues and that we are not alone in our madness… in fact… our madness is quite common.
