@iamwavezilla is the most supportive 😂🥹 despite all my years doing parkour, I’ve actually never done a thread before so I was really happy to learn today

May 1st marks the beginning of Mental Health Awareness Month and I filmed a whole thing for it and it somehow got deleted so I had to do a quick new one where I say “talk about” way too many times 🥲 but alas, I committed to putting something up to start off.
Thanks for listening ❤️🧠

I know this is long but stay with me, I’m just trying to find ways to hold myself accountable and if talking to my camera while I make my way through a session will help, then I’m gonna do my best to keep it up
It’s been almost 3 months since I was hospitalized for experiencing a delusion that my loved ones would die if I didn’t k!ll myself first. It feels like it’s been so much longer than just 3 months, and also like it was just yesterday.
It’s a strange and nearly impossible thing to explain what it’s like to experience a break from reality, to fully believe something so definitively despite any amount of evidence to suggest otherwise, to be so terrifyingly convinced of something that it influences the entirety of your behavior.
I wanted to say some words about it while I’m still doing the work in therapy/group to process the whole experience piece by piece. It’s still quite weird to talk about these things on camera (although it’s getting a bit easier)
To those who listened or read this far, thank you ❤️

This was 13 years ago today 🥹
the last few years have been rough but this little memory that popped up today was a good reminder of how much time I’ve spent doing this thing that I love. It’s how I’m connected to the majority of you reading this, it’s how I have the life I have now.
Grateful to the me that stuck with it back then and to the me that’s making my way back to it now. ❤️🩹

Today is National Semicolon Day and I had some words I wanted to share before the day ends. My story has been a long one, but it isn’t over yet and neither is yours. ❤️;

Story time about the first moment I ever heard voices when I was 12 years old.
Experiencing psychosis at such a young age was quite terrifying and led to years of me trying to hide my symptoms, believing that I’d “be in trouble” for them. It’s taken a long time to get comfortable talking about it like this, and this is the first time I’ve ever really told part of this story. So if you took the time to listen to these 4 minutes of me rambling, thank you ❤️
Starting these conversations has an important role in normalizing the experiences that myself and so many others live with. Ask questions, engage, and talk with the people in your lives who have lived experience with mental illness. It’s the best way to begin to gain a deeper understanding and learn ways to offer support. 🧠
