Grief on grief
I was ridiculously lucky to get to 28 years old without experiencing close-family grief. Age 21 I lost a best friend, which was a truly horrendous experience, and I thought I knew grief somewhat. In hindsight, I had no real idea of grief at all. Every grief is completely different.

Disney Hercules
Frozen, Beauty & the Beast, The Lion King, The Little Mermaid, Up! Yes, all brilliant in their own ways. I don’t need to take the time to explain how they acclaimed their fame & fortunate. In fact, I don’t need to explain how Disney makes it’s magic at all - that ship sails itself.

Dealing With Severe Health Anxiety and Psychosomatic Symptoms
From December 2017 - May 2018 I experienced months of severe, and some could say sudden, health anxiety symptoms which completely took over and ruined most parts of my life. That first sentence sounded very dramatic but I can't stress enough how debilitating it can be to be constantly convinced that you are seriously ill every second of every day. My anxiety (fortunately or unfortunately?) hooked on my ability to see and created a compulsive fear of going blind (which I later found out is called Scotomaphobia).
