Love and Happiness Begin with You.
Do you find yourself stuck in a cycle, repeating the same things over and over, hoping for a different outcome?
Do you feel sad, but can't quite pinpoint why?
Is it as if you're watching your life unfold without truly feeling like you're present?
Is anxiety creeping in, or do you feel physically unwell, even right after waking up?
I've been there more times than I can count, and I still experience these moments. But here's the good news: You're not alone, and change is possible.
In this journey, we'll work together to learn how to love and care for ourselves. You'll find a mix of affirmations, empowering quotes, breathing exercises, pressure point techniques, and so much more-tools that can help bring you back to yourself and find peace.
Let's take this journey of healing, growth, and self-love together.

Red As Snow...(BWAM, Yakuza Romance, 18+)
"Growing up, my mother always told me one thing; bad company corrupted good morals. I didn't believe her, didn't believe those words she'd always said to me with such conviction. I'd always thought myself strong, always thought myself good enough to corrupt those bad morals. That was until I crossed paths with a man so lethal, a man so utterly consumed with darkness. And gradually, his words of poison would lace my system, dilute my sanity and leave me begging at his feet for more..." It was hate at first sight... I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE IMAGES USED IN THIS BOOK.

It hurts....the emptiness [reborn as Rebekah Mikealson]
You know....when you first hear that fast beating heartbeat.... everything else melts away, the stress of finding out you're pregnant at 16, your boyfriend ghosting you after you showed him the test, your parents abandoning you when you need them most.....it all goes away and you finally found what you been looking for all along....unconditional love and that's exactly what I felt towards you my love...my sun flower...my baby......God gave me 2 years to be your mother and now the memories hurt......love I am so sorry mommies coming. Dani Winters was on her way home from her friends house, listening to her son talk random things when suddenly a car came out of nowhere and rammed the side of her car, she slowly opened her eyes only to groan out a gasp and tried to turn to check on Tommy.....only to let out an agonizing scream after and lost consciousness. The doctors tried to save her, she came back a few times but she didn't want to....she didn't want to live in a world without her son....they fought to bring her back....well she fought to stay dead, so what happens when the next time she wakes she's in a coffin wearing a 20s dress and having the most hungry inducing thirst.....and her only thought 'It hurts.' Warning this will have discussions about suicidal thoughts/actions, death of a child, depression, blood, gore, murder, etc⚠️⚠️⚠️
It does get better.
People say it will get better. But to be fair, most of them never were in your place. They say you will get happy again, but how can they know? I've struggled with trauma, mental illnesses, and self harm for many years. These are (mostly) poems - about me and my journey of getting better. ! As this is about self harm and other previously mentioned topics, it might be triggering. I don't glorify it in any way, though. I'm also not a native English speaker. If you find any mistakes, please tell me so I can improve.
Amore.
This is a series of short stories, poems and thoughts I've written over the years, compiled into this collection. Most of these were written years ago. Some I've written as early as this year (2025). The purpose of this volume is to feel. Feel everything as though you are the main character experiencing each emotion expressed through my writing. These are written through my perspective as a woman, but please let this resonate with you regardless of your identity. Please vote, comment, like and share. Thank you! - nhiamareComplete
INSIDE AND OUT
They say a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. But what if that step is taken in the dark, guided only by the fragile, flickering light of your own fear? This is not just a story of a journey; it is the map of a soul. Inside and Out is a piercingly intimate exploration of a life built-and almost broken-by its own walls. It begins in the quiet turmoil of self-doubt, where the reflection in the mirror is a stranger and the concept of beauty feels like a weapon. Here, in the shadows of uncertainty, a spark of determination is born-not a roar, but a whisper, a stubborn refusal to be defined by the cracks within. This is a story of peeling back the layers. It's about the terrifying, exhilarating work of growth, of looking your deepest fears in the eye and choosing to move forward anyway. It's about clawing your way toward self-respect, not as a destination, but as a daily practice of choosing yourself, piece by broken piece. And then, just when you think the path is one you must walk alone, another soul intersects yours. This is where the narrative deepens, transforming into a profound meditation on true love. But this is not a fairy tale. This love is a mirror, reflecting back not only your light but also every unhealed scar. It is a love that demands courage, that asks the most terrifying question of all: Can I be truly seen, inside and out, and still be chosen? Inside and Out is a breath held before a confession, the ache of a healing wound, the fierce, quiet triumph of a spirit refusing to be subdued. It is for anyone who has ever fought to find the beauty in their own chaos and dared to believe that the most important jo journey we ever take is the one that leads us back to ourselves-and, in doing so, opens us to a love that is as relentless as it is real. Prepare to feel the story unfold within you. Your journey begins here.Complete

Falling Apart
*TRIGGER WARNING: DEALS WITH DEPRESSION, SELF HARM AND SUICIDE* Amber is sixteen years old and to sugarcoat it... She hasn't had the best upbringing. She would love a different life, one where she can see her mother again and not be stuck with her abusive father. A life where she doesn't get taunted and hit and torn apart by everyone who she has ever seen. But she would never swap, she doesn't want anyone to endure the pain she's gone through. So instead, she tries to get rid of it... Again. But much to her disbelief, she is saved by the people she would least expect. She learns secrets about them that no one else knows. She feels included. Cared for. And dare I say it... She felt loved. For once in her life, she felt truly happy to be alive. But just when Amber felt safe, her life was flipped upside down and her past came back to haunt her just when she least expected it... (Sorry, I suck at descriptions, don't let it put you off) Ranking: #64 in Awareness #15 in Mental Health Awareness #73 in saddnessComplete
