My mental health journey

getting knocked up TWICE

I did the deed and I got knocked up. After I gave birth I suffered from post-partum depression without even knowing it. Guys, it gets even more wild. I got knocked up - AGAIN. I suffered with depression and anxiety all through my second pregnancy and up until now.

I do my best to be as open as possible with my mental health journey because I know what it’s like to feel alone and feel like no one else is going through what I am. I have been in therapy for almost 3 years and it has made such positive impact in my life. It’s allowed me to deal with a lot of issues , emotional traumas and toxic traits that I never wanted to deal with. It’s shaped me into the person I am today. It’s been a struggle but with every hardship I have become stronger and learned to value myself. Therapy has had a positive impact in my personal life as well as my professional life. It’s allowed me to learn more about myself and how to navigate myself as a beauty professional. I hope that in sharing my journey it allows others to talk more openly about their journey. 

Remember it’s ok to not be ok, and to ask for help.
