15 years of purgatory with no end in sight. I only have one real regret and that was failing in 2010.
📣Coach Tip: Laughter is the most underreported and accessible way to enhance your quality of life.😅
✅ #Fun fact: #Laughter rewires the brain, boosts your immune system, and deepens human connection. You don’t need a #gym membership, fancy supplements, or a five-step morning routine—just a reason to laugh.
And hey, there’s no shame in being the person who laughs a little too loudly. That might be exactly what someone else needs today.🤣
「 Do not offer up your feelings and decisions and memories to the intrusion of the market, to the interpretation of experts, to be filed as deviations from what the medical industry decides is healthy. Leave yourself unsolved 」

"Prioritizing mental health isn’t retreat; it’s smart strategy. By tuning into your reactions and taking deliberate steps to manage them, you can stay informed—and stay steady—no matter how rough the political waters get."

Before the war in Ukraine, the Tupkalenko brothers played with miniature cars at home, like many boys their age. Today, plastic guns are the favored toys. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/07/12/world/society/ukraine-war-childhood-scars/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #society #russiaukrainewar #children #mentalhealth

For the longest time I rejected having impostor syndrome. But during holidays I recognize it.
The thoughts rise up from the little things. For example, as I watch my Mastodon instance that has almost 1000 users or look at other achievements I've made, I ask myself: what if that sucks, how can this be good, why do they like this, what the...?
It's impossible for my brain to understand that I can succeed and do great things. I wonder why that is... those years in therapy were clearly not enough. I'm still on a journey.

This post sort of defies the point I’m making, but I may in fact be developing a healthier relationship with social media in that I’m not using much of it. I feel less obsessive about what goes on here on Mastodon, and since I’ve been working on traditional publishing lately, I’m not posting every thought that comes into my head. I’ve been writing in a diary and working on essays for two books, instead. Now, if I could just get rid of my cell phone. #SocialMedia#Writing#MentalHealth
