grey area

grey area is a collection of self-help poetry about healing, mental health, survival, and personal growth. through honest, vulnerable poetry, it explores themes of depression, anxiety, friendship, first love, self-discovery, and the messy realities of life in your twenties.grey area is for anyone navigating healing, identity, and the search for balance in an imperfect world. it's inspired by my own struggles overcoming depression and anxiety, and my own experiences since i first entered the therapy room many years ago. grey area is comprised of three chapters: black (the darkest of times), white (a time of false hope) and grey (becoming more balanced). you're taken through the same stages of healing, learning that life is messy, weird, awkward, and that nothing is perfect. i hope it inspires you to be a little less black and white, and move more into the grey area.my therapist once saidmost modern mental health conditionsare caused by being too black or whiteat first i disagreed“but i’m just doing the right thing”and i didn’t realise that meant thateveryone else was wrong a whole new chapter of healing startedonce i started to see the beautyof livingin the grey area Read more
