My life is, by every objective measurement, very very good.

And in spite of all of that, I struggle every day with my self esteem, my self worth, and my value not only as an actor and writer, but as a human being.

That’s because I live with Depression and Anxiety, the tag team champions of the World Wrestling With Mental Illness Federation.

    I started reading but couldn’t get past “I want to warn you that this talk touches on many triggering subjects” because I got triggered. I really hope that more sites implement pre-triggering trigger warning. :(

        I guess so. There really should be more safe spaces for people who trigger easily. Life’s hard as it is. A lot of us just see a word “trigger” and get triggered. I got twice just writing this.
