Daily Reminders

Daily Reminders

Forcing these ideals into my mind doesn’t block out my suicidal thoughts, but I’m more able to blunt their impact.

From Milliamps to 14,400 Volts

From Milliamps to 14,400 Volts

I’m deliberately subjecting myself to electric shocks to reboot my brain because standard medication treatments have not been effective enough.

Gordon Corsetti Mental Agility Foundation

Life on the 7th Shelf is my way of sharing how a person can live well with depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation.

The 7th Shelf was written by Dante in The Inferno, as the Wood of the Suicides.

For me, living on the 7th shelf is challenging but I have found my means for winning the daily battle against the worst my mind can throw at me.
