As so numerous do. The extent of my struggle known to veritably, veritably many. 

 

 Ashamed and in pain, I considered myself damaged goods. And the voices in my head prompted me down the path to tone- destruction. Not for the firsttime.I ’ve plodded with depression since nonage. It’s a battle that’s bring me time, openings, connections, and a thousand insomniac nights. 

 

 In 2010, at the smallest point in my adult life, I was looking far and wide for relief/ comfort/ distraction. And I turned to food. It could have been anything. medicines. Alcohol. coitus. But eating came the one thing I could look forward to. Count on to get me through. There were stretches when the highlight of my week was a favorite mess and a new occasion of TOP Cook. occasionally that was enough. Had to be. 

 

 And I put on weight. Big f – kingdeal.One day, out for a hike in Los Angeles with a friend, we crossed paths with a film crew shooting a reality show. Unknown to me, shooters were circling. They took my picture, and the prints were published alongside images of me from another time in my career. “ Hunk To Chunk. ” “ Fit To Flab. ”Etc. 

 

 My mama has one of those “ musketeers ” who’s always the first to bring you bad news. They cropped one of these papers from a popular public magazine and posted it to her. She called me,concerned.In 2010, fighting for my internal health, it was the last thing Ineeded.Long story short, Isurvived.So do thosepictures.I ’m glad. 

 

 Now, when I see that image of me in my red t- shirt, a rare smile on my face, I'm reminded of my struggle. My abidance and my perseverance in the face of all kinds of demons. Some within. Somewithout.Like a dandelion up through the pavement, Ipersist.Anyway. Still.Despite.The first time I saw this meme pop up in my social media feed, I've to admit, it hurt to breathe. But as with everything in life, I get to assign meaning. And the meaning I assign to this/ my image is Strength. Healing. remission. 

 

 Of myself andothers.However, help is available, If you or someone you know is floundering. Reach out. Text. shoot an dispatch. Pick up the phone. Someone cares. They ’re staying to hear from you. important love
