Selective mutism isn't something that's fake or made up. It's a real thing that not many people know about. I never knew until I was told I had it. This is going to have some experiences I have had, and maybe or poem or two. But just renember this, someone may look just shy, but it isn't always just shy. Selective mutism is a real anxiety disorder that needs to be understood.

My First Challenge And Tool - Accepting My Depression
After enduring the depths of depression, I can now say with conviction: "I am not a depressed person. I have depression-it's a disease, not a choice, and it does not define me." This shift in perspective has been transformative, enabling me to speak openly about my struggles and focus on recovery rather than feeling ashamed or attempting to conceal my pain. This book is a collection of stories that I can finally share now that I have emerged on the other side. It weaves together the moments that led me into depression and those that guided me toward healing. By looking back, connecting the dots, and making sense of it all, I hope to offer understanding, solace, and a sense of companionship to anyone who may be suffering in silence today.

Life is Liz (LiL, #1)
"Really perfection is only just impossibility." ~~~~ Sometimes I'm happy to be alone. Glad even that I'm able to enjoy me-time in peace. Other times I feel so lonely that I can't breathe without enduring the empty pain in my heart, yearning for another to embrace me, to inhale the scent of his cologne, and for it to lull me into the comfort of tranquility. I yearn for the reassuring warmth of his hug provided by his body heat. I yearn to find he who helps me up when I get beaten down, who fights my demons with me, who pushes me into situations that I fear. Someone who understands, who is always there, who makes me happy again. He who soothes me through his presence only, who laughs with me and at my lame jokes. I long to find the one that can bring me immense joy and I him. He is the person that I doubt I'm able to find.
