If you’re not in the arena also getting your ass kicked, I’m not interested in your feedback.

I am so grateful to be sitting outside feeling completely at peace with where I am in life, as simple as this may sound the more I write and post the more you (the reader lol) will understand why this simple feeling of peace and tranquility has so much meaning to me. I’ll keep this post short by just explaining a little of my background. I am 24 years old and despite my young age I feel like I have experienced a lot for being so young. Today I was discharged from a psychiatric unit. I landed there for many reasons but it all cumulated in suicidal ideation. I am grateful to say that sitting here I am at peace and no words can describe the amount of gratitude I feel for being alive today. So I hope you will follow me on my journey through recovery and finding self-compassion, maybe by writing on weekly basis I will be able to make at least one person feel like they are not alone. If you want to get into contact with me you can email me at coming.out.of.pure.insanity@gmail.com, I will answer all email.
See you soon,
