By Maya Friedson The day I became the other person to lose their father to suicide I was 18 and on a plane going home. “Flight attendants, please prepare for take-off,” rang through the speakers.

As I reached over to silence my phone, it buzzed. The words of a text read: “His father is dead.” As I was putting the phone away, it buzzed again. “It was suicide.” I sighed deeply.

I too had gone through what he was now experiencing. The day I became the other person to lose their father to suicide I remembered why sympathy doesn’t cut it.

On Megan Markle, and the Ways We Can Better Protect Black Women
Oprah’s interview with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry was heavy on the “Protect Black Women” because it highlighted how often we fail them. Markle shared the racism she endured related to her firstborn child, as well as thoughts of suicide she experienced due to mounting pressure and bias. For some this has been a shock, as many believe the U.K. to be a post-racial society, but this is not true. Unfortunately, there are few spaces in this world in which Black women can exist in a state of peace, wellness and live unbothered.

Why Hyperfixation Feels Like a Toxic Part of My Mental Health Struggle
Hyperfixation, commonly associated with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD), is an occurrence when an individual becomes fully engrossed with something, may it be a hobby, movie, book, person, and so on. Often, this hyperfixation affects the rest of the person’s life as they have a challenging time focusing on anything other than their fixation, including work, school, self-care and relationships. While hyperfixation is associated with ADHD and autism, it is also present in various mental illnesses, and as someone with mental illness, I often experience hyperfixation and would like to share my story with you.

The Day I Learned I Was Twice Exceptional
I recently started reading a book called, “To Be Gifted and Learning Disabled.” This book talks about students, as well as adults, who have both a disability — the main examples are learning disabilities, autism, ADHD, and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) — and traits of giftness, high intelligence, or talents. However, there are certainly other disabilities and health (mental or physical) challenges that can make someone fall into this category.

You don't have to be a specialist to support people with eating disorders like me - you just have to listen and care.
But no matter where I looked, I struggled to find examples of people who looked like me or had similar experiences to what I was going through. The only people I had heard of with eating disorders were young girls and the only people with anorexia shown in the media were nothing like me at all.

What a ‘Typical’ Day Is Like With Generalized Anxiety Disorder
You feel your bones crushing. You feel like the ceiling is falling in on you. The symbols and words and advertisements displayed all over the walls of your bus on the morning commute, jumble up and look semi-blurry. When you step off and start to walk toward your next destination — that’s when the tunnel vision kicks in. You walk in a straight line because that’s all your eyes can see. Sometimes, it’s so bad you feel like your peripheral vision is escaping you, as if you’ll hit a tree branch or another person, even though they are nowhere in sight. It’s your mind playing tricks on you again.

He asked me, over and over, whether I had gone through anything traumatic. He threw out the same list of traumas every time, rattling off the options — I shrugged. When I told him, he asked if it had only happened once. Then he threw out the list again. “Anything? Anything?” he asked.

There Might Be A Link Between Self-Esteem And Father-Daughter Bonds
This powerful relationship between father and daughter begins around age 2 and lasts a lifetime, but the critical (formative) years are ages 2 through 4. The basic questions that go along with development at this age are: Is it OK to be me? Am I free to explore, to experiment with my new environment and enjoy the things I gravitate toward?If parents allow the child to be self-sufficient, to explore, and be repetitive in her actions, then she will grow with a sense of autonomy.

The 3 Words I'm Celebrating on Rare Disease Day
I was an infant when my mom began to worry about the two words we would come to dread the most: pulmonary embolism. As she researched my diagnosis, Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome (KTS), she noticed those two words often appeared in the literature. “Will we need to watch for blood clots?” my mom asked my doctors in Boston and Dallas. These specialists, some of whom were known for treating KTS and would later develop CLOVES syndrome, said no. At the time, they thought a pulmonary embolism was only a dreaded complication for those with KTS in their legs.

5 Things They Don’t Tell You When You Lose a Child
Well, let’s be honest … no one actually tells you anything about losing a child. This isn’t a conversation topic you broach at the breakfast table or necessarily a topic to research in advance. As unthinkable as the scenario of losing a child might be, it’s a reality that many people have experienced, myself included. While reactions to grief may vary, the reality of a few key concepts remain consistent.
