"How are you?" is one of the hardest questions in the world to answer. Most people respond with a quick "I'm good," "I'm fine" without even thinking, because this question has become a part of everyday life. We've become a culture that has normalized being "okay," "fine," "good". I am passionate about creating spaces for people to express how they truly feel. Drug abuse, suicide, eating disorders, domestic violence, brain disorders, and all other mental health issues. I intend to remove the barriers and stigmas that prevent human beings from gaining access to someone who can listen to them.
It's okay to not be okay, and it's a human right to have access to someone who can be there for you when you are not okay.
