If you don't know who Shane Dawson is, he's a very famous Youtuber whose vast amount of subscribers check in on him to see long, expose style mini-documentaries on relevant internet topics.

If there's anything that makes me really shake, it's sociopaths. Well, even more than that, and this isn't something I usually talk about with folks- so even those close to me wouldn't know it- but the thing that really grinds my gears the most is internet pro-ana content.

I got it all out there. My intent was not… Continue reading The Power of Not Posting

I have been through many breakups, makeups, rebounds and long lost reunions, likely much more-so than folks my age usually have.

I’m going to college soon. I’m so happy. I actually got into the college that my ex is going to, and can’t go for financial reasons. A real blessing in disguise. In any case, my chapter of discussing him on this blog is coming to an end. This’ll be the last one, unless something new… Continue reading Gas lighting in Pictures: My Last
I have a bit of a different message for today. I’m happy. I’m really, genuinely, profusely happy in my own skin, for the first time in a large handful of years. I adore my friends and relationships; I feel truly valued and important and heard within them. I adore my body and how it can… Continue reading I’m So Happy
