I write. I photograph. I embroider. I draw. I sew. I knit. I talk openly about mental health.

Me: “I’m finally gonna sew a run of clothing! 7 sizes of pattern/color-block rompers, here I come!”
Anathema: “Sure. Good luck with that.”

(Romper/playsuit series coming soon. Provided she moves…)

It’s possible I packed this "makeup" case manic/psychotic in 2014…

It all made sense at the time...

Contents include: Ganesh incense stand, quartz heart, Mighty Boosh pins, monkey magnetic bookmarks, & Chococat band aids for the Hello Kitty gal on the go.

Suggesting a depressed person fight their depression w/ gratitude propagates mental illness stigma.

Depression & gratitude are NOT at odds. In fact, depressed people tend to be MORE grateful cuz depression makes you feel less deserving of good things like love & remaining alive.
