I want to start off by saying that mental health is not something to be joked about. I have depression, anxiety, ocd and anorexia and I know as well as anyone that it is not a laughing matter. For too long, it has been a subject that has been shunned and hidden away because we are afraid to face up to the fact that we as human beings suffer from illnesses like these. I hope by reading just a few of my poems, you will understand what it is like to suffer from a mental health 'problem' and I hope that together we can build a better world for everyone. Thank you

Also, if anyone does feel like they have something that is 'wrong', please don't hide it. Go and see your doctor please. And if anyone ever needs anyone to talk to, my metaphorical door is always open
