Let me acknowledge I agree with them — sometimes. Sometimes it is dangerous and unhealthy, but sometimes it is what I need to get by without a public episode.

The ultrasound tech said the doctor would explain afterward. The tech would take pictures of the baby, while the doctor reviewed the images in a different room. I watched the tech’s expression while I leaned back on the stiff hospital chair, jelly sliding on my round stomach. She clicked in silence, images froze on the screen. Clouds, a dark blob. The baby’s heart, she said. She only looked calm, and I tried to relax, reminded myself again of the odds that the doctors told us, that everything was fine.

Why My Best Friends Are Online Friends in Life With Chronic Illness
I have never met some of my closest friends face-to-face. When you have a chronic illness, it’s often hard to meet new friends. In my case, it is due to self-isolation and because it is much easier to find other people I can relate to and have a lot in common with online than in person.

When the End of a Friendship Is Actually a Blessing
I’d always been afraid of being the party who was dumped in a relationship, even a platonic one. After a childhood where I was blamed for seemingly every misfortune that befell me, I felt that I needed to accommodate everyone in my circle of friends at all times. Thus, I would often not speak out privately and even apologize when I knew I was right, just to keep the peace. At a certain point, however, I knew that I could no longer tolerate abusive behavior, and that there were times where rejection from someone I considered a friend was the biggest blessing.

4 TikTok Therapists You Need to Follow If You Struggle With Your Mental Health
Similar to Vine, TikTok has become the new social media rage over this year. It tends to be used primarily by teenagers, but is becoming increasingly popular across all age groups. Young adults, celebrities, “TikTok moms” and even the elderly are all sharing videos. I finally caved in and joined a few months ago and let me tell you, if there is anything bringing in some extra serotonin during this quarantine, it’s this app. I find myself laughing, crying, trying to dance and feeling understood by my fellow users. Among the many users of this app, there are mental health professionals using the platform to spread awareness and help those who are struggling — they refer to themselves as “TikTok therapists.”

4 Tips for How to Stay Healthy as a Caregiver
I served as a caregiver for my ailing grandfather for two years leading up to his death in the summer of 2017. While I enjoyed the time I spent with my grandfather during this time, the day-to-day responsibilities of caregiving could be stressful physically, emotionally and mentally in ways I did not anticipate. In hindsight, I could have avoided some of these hardships if I had a conversation with one of the 43.5 million Americans who have served as informal caregivers to ailing and/or disabled family members.

Healthy split: How to regain confidence after a divorce
Normally, no one enters a marriage expecting it to fail, and honestly, we all know where a marriage can lead eventually.

The Power of Carefully Selected Coping Mechanisms in Life With Mental Illness
Carefully selected coping mechanisms can often be the only thing that helps you get through the day when you’re living with mental illness. The methods used vary widely, from person to person and from disorder to disorder, but the intent is the same. An effective coping mechanism should keep you elevated above, but maybe not out of, the quagmire of emotions or thoughts that threaten to pull you down. They give you a reason to smile, a distraction from the pain or just a way to put one foot in front of another.

My View of the Pandemic as a Mental Health Worker in India
In India, the recent coronavirus outbreak has hit our society in multiple ways. We are 1.37 billion people, most of us live too close together and our social fabric is such that public hygiene has never been much of a priority, so in the face of this new pandemic, both social distancing and the other measures the prevention demands like washing hands frequently, sanitizing surfaces or keeping public places less crowded are options logistically almost impossible for India other than via a complete lockdown.

I spent a lot of time scared about my health and its unknowns, not knowing when or how my life could change next.

Now I am hearing it again on a daily basis — on TV, on social media, and in conversation. It brings me back to a past that I thought I had escaped.
