Monday 13th May Very disturbed sleep last night, not as disturbing as my dreams though. One of them was me crying over a book about animal cruelty and P Diddy was in the same place and came and cheered me up. I mean WTF? I didn’t even have any cheese…

I have recently come to believe that some of the issues we have with our mental health is caused by what we see growing up. I’m actually not talking about the bad stuff, I’m talking about the good stuff, our escape, TV, Magazines, Books. How great does everything seem? Everyone…

After my recent post I went on to think a bit more about everything, I mean nothing like a bit of overthinking right? Another thing that’s been playing on my very annoying mind lately is that I feel like I love my boyfriend more than he loves me, I know…

After taking some much-needed downtime, I feel refreshed and ready to get back to it. The Decembers of Christmas past were spent preparing for the numerous Christmas nights out I have organised. Eating and drinking with reckless abandon through the entire month of December, telling myself I will “be good”…
