The “Ingredients”
AKA Content Warnings
Please be aware that while these stories explore in-depth the effects and internal struggles of mental illness, it is an interpretation based on my own perspective, and is by no means a self-help book. Everyone’s experience with mental illness and trauma is different as well as their most effective treatments. I ask that you take all of this into consideration when reading. As always, your mental health matters.
