I don’t know how strong God thinks I am! I just keep wondering if things will ever get better for me? I promise I try so hard to stay positive and keep praying, sometimes it feels like the better I do the worse things get. Smh, life has to get better at some point! I just know I wasn’t sent here to just exist without a purpose. If so why does He woke me up every morning, to punish me?????? I feel so hopeless sometimes, feel like running away but I know my problems will run behind me. I know God didn’t bring me this far to fail me. Could He????
Welcome, My name is Olivia Shepherd, and I am the founder of this awesome blog about depression and mental illness. I started this blog in 2016 after being diagnosed with Major Depression, Anxiety and PTSD. I didn't have anybody to talk too or share my feelings with, so I decided to share them publicly to help others.
I'm passionate and dedicated to bringing awareness about mental health, especially in the African American community.
I also want to empower your voice to speak up and fight the stigma surrounding this illness.
I’m also the founder of AshesToBeauty Mentoring & Outreach, a virtual online service dedicated to to the positive development and accelerated recovery of girls and women who have experienced abuse and depression, Ashes To Beauty strives to empower women to take their lives back by providing life skill education, one-on-one mentorship and impactful personal tools by which these impacted women can build the foundation for a successful future.
Look forward to having you read my blog,
