After a short break from writing, I’m slowly getting back into the groove. The truth is, my mental health took a dive this past week, and that’s something I’ve had to face many times before. It’s also a thread that runs deeply through my book—examining the raw, messy, and sometimes painful parts of life.
One of my earlier chapters puts it perfectly: "The house was bleak, shaped by depression and tension, and it was suffocating. But I kept going, even when it felt like I was holding my breath."
I’m learning to take those moments of breathlessness and turn them into something meaningful. Whether it’s in my book or in my life, those moments are a reminder that even when things feel heavy, I can keep going.
If you’re struggling too, know this: It’s okay to pause. It’s okay to take care of yourself. And when you’re ready, you can start again.
