Mental health is nothing to joke about.

It is a disease affecting your body or brain. There are so many different things that can happen to someone to develop these issues. Rape, losing a loved one, bullying, and so much more can affect someone to affect them to the point of developing these issues.

People think that these issues happen fast, but they develop until it really hits you.

People can get anxiety, PTSD, depression, and so much more throughout their lives and never really know why it happened to them.

These diseases can affect you in so many ways.

You can become distant with family, significant others, and even friends. You feel like there’s nothing you can do to fix it or fix your life to make it better. No matter what you do, you aren’t making the people most important to you happy, or that nothing you do is good enough to please them. You feel like nobody wants you or would ever want you. It’s hard to live with these diseases.

I just want to let the people struggling with these mental health issues to know that it does get better.

It may take months or years but it will eventually get better and you will become happy again and feel like yourself. You need to get yourself the help you need, I know it’s hard to get help but you will be thankful that you did one day. Reach out to a loved one and talk to them about your struggles and seek the help you deserve. These issues take a toll on the body and can cause you to become extremely unhealthy. Getting help will help yourself upkeep your body and mind.

There is no shame in getting the help you need in order to help yourself.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
