As a mental health advocate I have sympathy for fellow sufferers. Trump is obviously a textbook narcissist. He is 9 for 9 in traits in the DSM 5. Do we blame him for his evil and hate filled behaviour? Or do we sympathize with him because of his illness

It's funny how change
Means I'm closer to the end
But it's not so bad
When there's all this cool new stuff
Happening at the same time

It all settles down
Upsets only last so long
Sooner than you think
Things are in a better place
Be patient, hang on, you'll see

Do you remember when you joined X? I don’t, other than I wasn’t sure how much I’d use it. Probably the biggest use has come from connecting with #sicknotweak peeps #MyXAnniversary
Opening the door
To the larger world outside
Take the time you need
To find a little courage
Good things are waiting for you

The tension lets go
Like a breath I've been holding
But hadn't noticed
Because I get so caught up
And forget everything else

This is how it is
It's been this way the whole time
Ebbing and flowing
But we move along ourselves
So that's easy to forget

It's still weird sometimes
Giving myself permission
To just walk away
From something that I can't fix
And care for myself instead
