Mental Health: Depression and Anxiety

I’ve touched on it but never gone into detail because it’s something I’ve been struggling with and find difficult to talk about. But here we go.Please respect my candour,…
Lee Stafford CoCo LoCo Review
Recently my love of all things coconut-scented has become all-consuming; I love it.

I Told A Stranger That I’m Disabled
May to me is all about EDS Awareness Month. I was diagnosed with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome when I was 19, (10 years ago now, that makes me feel old) it took over six years before I received a diagnosis and there is still not enough knowledge about EDS.I’m really awkward when it comes to talking…

Non-Demanding TV Shows
