And it is so incredibly fucking dark down here.

Hey! I'm Ophelia. You've just entered a safe space! Here, we talk about depression, sex, and cannabis openly and honestly without judgment. It's time we stop vilifying these natural subjects which have grown to become taboo. When depression is mislabeled as laziness, we encourage suicide. When sex is taught to be shameful, we promote rape culture. And when cannabis is prohibited, ailing people suffer without access, or worse, are jailed. I have a Bachelor of Science degree and have spent my adult life researching and experimenting with these topics. I've made it my mission to dispel myths by using science, and to give others hope by sharing my experiences. Lives are destroyed or lost when we choose to not talk about the difficult things. But we can do better. Start by Speaking Out on the Unspeakable! @FearlessOphelia FearlessOphelia@gmail.com View more posts
If you’re not living on the edge, you’re taking up too much room. 😉
Hugs.

I thought I was alone down here. Do you know why? I’ve had my chest pressed against the wall slowly gliding sideways. My hands searching on each side of me for the damn light switch. And no one has grabbed my ass yet. Therefore I assumed I was alone.

At the bottom, arch your back, kick off and fight your way back up. I know it’s hard but would it be worth it if it wasn’t?

Stopped by today because you visited me…glad I did. Depression is an asshole that I am familiar with. Please remember that there is light on the other side. Don’t know if you are familiar with Jenny Lawson, but she is one of my favorite people. She writes http://thebloggess.com/, and she is “one of us.” One of her lines about the darkness is to remember: “Depression lies.” And it does. Hang on, sister.

Whenever I feel down, and nothing I can do will help, I set myself aside and visit http://www.moreloveletters.com and I write a letter to someone else who is in need. This site always helps restore my faith in humanity, at least a little bit. Reaching out to others helps us lift ourselves up.

I cook ramen in water and boil it,
Cooking it just right not to spoil it.
I’ve gone a bit far
Drunk at home from the bar,
By using water I scooped up from the toilet! 😜

If I was physically there with you I’d give you a hug and a large glass of wine: since I’m not, here’s some virtual love. I know it’s only words, but we’ll be here whenever you want to talk.
