I almost forgot that last Tuesday I had an appointment scheduled with my psychiatrist. Thank goodness I received the notification alarm a few days before the visit. 😅 I recently stumbled across pictures in which I was smiling genuinely and being carefree. So I put them as my lock screen and home screen pictures. [...]

headspace | masking anxiety

. Just last month have I only opened up about the anxiety and depressive symptoms that I've been having publicly to friends and family. I mean, apart from the close ones that I've opened up to earlier. And I find something interesting. Since I first opened up to people about my symptoms, people who knew be [...]
headspace | bad day
I had a reallyyy bad day today. . One of those days where you just have no one to go to except Allah S.W.T. One of those days where the only words that come out of me are, "O Allah, help me." . I must say, I'm handling it better though. If I were still [...]
headspace | support network for better mental health
Hey hey heyyy... Here is this month instalment of the mental health series. I think I should name the instalments so it'd be easier for people to find them, because if you're a keen reader of this space, you'd know that sometimes I write about...absolute rubbish. 🤣 . Mental illness can seem a lonely place [...]
headspace | a farewell letter to anxiety
Dear Anxiety, You've been playing mind games with me for the past 4 years now and I am more than done with you. I want you gone...forever. Because of that, I am trying harder than ever to beat you. And eventually, I will. Some days are worse than others and I try to ignore [...]
headspace | breaking through
I can't believe I'm finally able to write this entry. Today I truly believe that I am ready to break through the label that has been keeping me from moving forward these few years. I'm done being the person with anxiety disorder. Well, for sure, I still experience the symptoms from time to time. [...]
headspace | social media detox update
It's been a while since I last posted that my fingers are just itched to write something. Some of you asked how did my social media detox's going. I think I'm comfortable enough to say that it's going pretty good. As I mentioned in previous post, I didn't go cold turkey on the detox because [...]
headspace | emdr: patient’s perspective [part four]
Heyyy.. 😊 If you haven't read the previous post, you can click on the link to read [part three]. I realise that I must summarise my sessions, or else this EMDR tag would take too long and it's going to get boring for you guys. Bear with me, okay? I'm trying my best to make [...]
headspace | i need to write more
You know, after almost 6 months writing on this blog. I kind of have the feeling that writing things out works wonders for me - physically and emotionally. 😊 Honestly, I don't know to whom I'm writing to, heck, I may even be writing to an empty room for all I care. But this place has become [...]
headspace | taking my time
I had a talk with crush yesterday. We talk about stuff, fun stuff. Then he asked me about how I am doing with the therapy. And again he told me his usual thing where he said it'd be good if I take most of the year off. Right then, I had enough. Goodness, guys. I'm [...]
