 Between the Tides

Some days I soar on wings of gold, My spirit bright, my heart so bold. Other days the shadows creep, Pulling me to waters deep.

Back and forth, this endless dance, Between darkness and brilliant chance. One moment flying towards the sun, Next moment too heavy to run.

But listen close, dear heart of mine, Even in darkness, stars still shine. This storm inside will ebb and flow, Like tides that come and tides that go.

I am more than just these waves, More than the shadow that behaves Like it's the only truth I'll know— I am the light, I am the glow.

So gentle be with your own soul, For you are beautiful and whole. Even when the night feels long, Remember: you are fierce and strong.

Each breath you take, each step you dare, Is proof of courage, proof you care. Hold on through both the highs and lows, For dawn always follows shadow's close.

But then, with medication, the mask fell off. I found myself again. I realized that the things I was doing wrong were not my failures but rather the influence of the "radio"—the relentless noise of bipolar disorder. Once I began treatment, I found a new path. I started talking again. I started writing. And I...

Bringing Mental Health, Depression, and Suicide to Light

  In the world, someone commits suicide every 40 seconds. Stories of suffering, adversity, and frequently silence lie behind each of these tragedies. For families, friends, and communities, suicide is a terrible reality, not simply a number. It is the ultimate call for assistance in a world that occasionally appears incapable or unwilling to hear it. There is no denying the connection between suicide and mental health. Desperation and hopelessness are sometimes preceded by mental health issues such as depression and anxiety. Still, one of the most stigmatized and little understood facets of human health is mental health, despite the significant effects these problems have on both individuals and society.
