About Me

I am in my mid 30s, a Mom of two beautiful children and a wife to an incredible man who suffers from depression.  At this point in my life I am delving deeply into my own truths and trying to navigate my way through this beautiful life with truth, compassion and humility.  I started this blog to write about my experiences dealing with my partner's mental illness.  

I've always loved to write.  I have journals dating back to fourth and fifth grade.  For me, it is a form of therapy.  I have another blog that I keep up with but I wanted to keep this separate simply to respect the privacy of my partner.  I guess, for now, the plan is to keep this somewhat anonymous and share my experience, strength and hope with others out there who may be going through the same thing.  Any photography you see is copy-writed and taken by my sweet husband, he is an amazing photographer and looking at his photos sometimes makes me feel I understand his world more.  

For other's that have found me and want to speak up, we are not alone and there is no need to suffer in silence.  Let's share and learn together.  Depression is a serious illness and it affects every family member.  Anyway, . . . here goes, . . .
