Recently, I’ve found myself reflecting on my mental health, and for once, it’s been really pleasurable. I finally feel like I am a whole person, and my brain isn’t constantly on high alert in a scary world, or telling me that I’m not as good as everyone else. I don’t even compare anymore – I’m happy to stand in my own space and I’m proud of what I’ve achieved, both personally and professionally.
