About

Hi,

My name is Aimee Louise Bryan and I am a 19 year old girl from the UK.

6 years ago, I was diagnosed with mental health problems (anxiety and depression) and have struggled with suicidal ideation and self harm. I started this blog in 2019 as a way to talk about my mental health as I am devoted to raising awareness as there is still a stigma surrounding it. I have grown so much and have learnt a lot of things. I love to help people as a way to let them know that they're not alone as I know firsthand how much loneliness and feeling isolated can affect you both mentally and physically. 

My goal for 2022 is to broaden my audience and to turn my blog into, not only a platform to talk about mental health, but to write about myself and what makes me who I am. I want to revamp my blog and create a space which is safe, fun and an escapism for myself and for anyone out there who relates to me. I want to talk about my passions such as fashion, music, film, writing etc. In particular, fashion is a huge love of mine as I love to shop, style clothes and I am so interested in the history. My dream job is to be a fashion journalist therefore I want to use this blog as a way to get a head start and to find the fun in writing again, as mental health made me lose that passion. 

I know I'm not a well known influencer or a celebrity and I am just a regular 19 year old girl from Liverpool, but one day I want to look back on this and see how far I have come. The manifestation and hard work starts now. 

Stay safe, take care of yourself and be kind. 

Lots of love,
Aimée Louise xx

The Reality of Mental Health

Darlings, When I started this blog I knew one of my goals was to write about mental health in order to help others going through the same thing, because the thought of another person experiencing the feelings I have felt and thinking the most difficult, unbearable thoughts that I have thought for the past three years breaks my heart in a way I can't explain. It's a different heartache I feel when I know someone is struggling and they can't talk because I know exactly how that is and trust me it's draining.  Fine  became part of my dictionary but with the most opposition meaning behind it and it slowly started becoming my routine and the norm to say that, revolutionising it until I mislead people into believing I was okay, and I really wasn't. But why did I say that when I was far from it? Because this society we live in stigmatises mental health so much when the worst place you could be in is inside your own head, so why doesn't it get the coverage it needs

My Personal Experience

I was 9 years old when my self esteem started to deteriorate. Even just writing that is upsetting, I was so young yet I was struggling already. The reasoning being that I was diagnosed with scoliosis at this age. If you don't know what scoliosis is, it is a medical condition in which causes a curvature to the spine. At the beginning it was 20 degrees, I didn't suffer with much pain but my paranoia over whether it was visible to others increased along with the percentage of my spine. Back brace for 4 years and yet my spine refused to slow down. Every checkup resulted in a drastic change in the curve and it was beginning to interfere with my breathing. By the time it was 85 degrees, I was 12 and the surgery was pushed forward because it was affecting my heart. 13 years old and I was preparing for a ten hour spine surgery. Could you even imagine the fear I was having? The thoughts such as what if I am paralysed after this? What if it isn't successful? Will I have to quit danc

♡ Darlings  it’s a fresh week and a chance to leave anything negative that happened behind. this week remember your mental health is far more important than homework you’re stressing about or what your boss is telling you to do. Go outside, breathe, meditate, do whatever your heart desires in order to keep yourself calm for these next 7 days. take some time for yourself and remember you’re only human, you’re allowed to have bad days and it’s okay not to be okay.  Perhaps make a list today consisting of the things you want to achieve by the end of this week, so when it comes Sunday you can look back and reflect on it. or even write down positive things you done this week, there’s no such thing as right or wrong or too little. The world is meant to be explored so go out and find something new, discover a different path and always keep following your dreams. Love what you have today and be grateful for it. Remember that you are special, blessed and have a purpose. You are going t
