The Winding Path

It took me quite some time to come to terms with understanding that I experienced abuse. To properly attach that descriptive to it was impactful and life changing.
This was on my mind, as delayed revelation was a part of a story in a book that I am currently reading.

I did not know there was such a thing - 6 days ago.

Today, we recognize and raise awareness about bipolar disorder—a condition that affects mood, energy, and daily functioning. Understanding, early clinical intervention, and compassionate care are essential for those living with bipolar disorder.

Counselling Therapists play a vital role in providing accessible, ethical, and evidence-based counselling interventions, helping clients manage symptoms, build resilience, and live fulfilling lives.

Let’s work together to reduce bias, promote mental wellness, and support those affected by bipolar disorder.

The deepest grief is realizing you were raised without the kind of love that felt safe.
Not everyone had parents who knew how to comfort them.
Not everyone had a home that felt soft to come back to.
Some people learned to hide their pain, hold themselves together, and survive without ever being deeply held.
And that leaves a mark.
Because when you grow up unseen, you don't just miss love.
You miss the safety that teaches you, you matter.
You're not weak for needing tenderness now.
You're not broken for grieving what you never got.
You're not "too much" for wanting the kind of care you had to give yourself.

Call for Justice 1.1:
Calls for a National Action Plan grounded in real, measurable change.
This includes ensuring access to basic rights, housing, health care, safety, education, and employment.
These are not extras.
They are the foundation of safety.
When these needs are unmet, risk increases.
When they are met, prevention becomes possible.
We cannot talk about ending violence without addressing the conditions that allow it to continue.
