  • You don’t need your mask

    Mandi it’s ok to be depressed. I started therapy again this week. I felt myself spiraling into the dark spaces and I’m fighting my way back to the light. Fight when you can, rest when you’re tired, cry when it hurts. You have to live where you are. It’s ok. I’m proud of you for sharing your struggles. Your honesty is helping me heal.
