Persons in the LGBTQ+ community can face inner and outer battles to either express their true selves or fake a “normal” lifestyle to appease those around them. They might avoid fear and ridicule in the moment, but risk further damage to their overall mental health from hiding their true identity.

Did you know that a woman’s chance of getting pregnant each month is about 25% or less.  At least that is what I remember the doctor telling me.  It had been almost six months with no period when my OB/GYN said something like: “Yup, you are not ovulating.  I’m going to send you across the hall to a specialist. Questions?”

This is the time of year that a lot of people spend with family. Truth be told, it’s probably a mixed bag. In the best of circumstances, family time can make us feel loved, accepted, and safe. But for some, family is the cause of many of our wounds.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that you probably don’t appreciate all the blessings in your life. Or is that just me? I get upset at small things, lose track of what matters, and have trouble being thankful even when my life is full of goodness. Don’t get me wrong; I’m not a fan of pretending everything is peachy when it isn’t. Toxic positivity is, well, toxic.
