 Hey y'all! A lot of us reading this post are either a single child or a younger or an older child(duh, obviously).  If you're an older sibling reading this, trust me you'll love it; but if you're a younger one, sorry but this is going to be calling out all your very annoying antics that you don't get scolded for and seem to get away with -_- If you're neither, enjoy me ranting about how annoying younger siblings can get :) I am an older sibling with an age difference of 5 years with my sister and trust me when I say, no matter what the age gap is, the younger siblings are always very galling. Right from kicking you off the bed when you're asleep to singing creepy songs in the middle of the night to blackmailing you with the smallest things ever-they've done it all; and most times don't even regret and apologise for it. Just a few of the annoying things my younger sister has done includes stealing my clothes, coming into my room while I was in a clas...

 Heyy everyone! Welcome back! So, a couple of months ago I had written on the benefits of sleep on our regular life , which gave rise to a lot of messages in my dm saying, "How are sleep and mental health related?" and "What are it's benefits on our mental health then?"  Not kidding, they were flooding! Which is why I thought, why not write on this as a blog post 🤷🏻‍♀️ Without further ado, lets get to it :) Are sleep and mental health related? The short answer is, yes. Sleep and mental health are closely interconnected.  Not getting enough sleep skews our ability to regulate our emotions. In the long run, this can increase our risk of developing a mental health condition. Poor sleep leads to worrying. Worrying leads to poor sleep. Worrying about sleep is like your mind trying to fight itself. It isn't a position you want to be stuck in. The second your sleep schedule starts messing up is when your mental health might begin to deteriorate. Not to mention, s...

Hey Everyone! With the 'back to school' mode beginning for almost all of us here's a post based on it!   School can be rife with stress, anxiety, panic attacks and even burnout-but there's often no fixed policy for students who need to prioritize their well-being.  Mental Health has often been one of the most neglected topics that a majority of schools ignore. There are plenty of educational institutions all over the world which do take this seriously, however not all. The term "Mental Health" is itself stigmatized in a majority of places. People do not speak up about it and are scared to even open up about it in the fear of judgement.  Where does the problem even begin? We as students, spend almost most of our time either at home or at school. The age group of 12-18 is most likely to develop symptoms that may affect one's mental health during this age due to a number of reasons. It could be due to something at home or stress, tension, pressure, etc. from ...

     Heyy everyone!  Happy Pride Month to all my lovelies 🏳‍🌈  As you all might be aware, the month of June is celebrated as International Pride Month all over the world! It is celebrated with great grandeur both online as well as in real life. However, there are a lot of struggles that people of this community go through on a daily basis mentally, which isn't spoken about as much as it should.  Today's post is a slightly different one. I had a fun interaction with a friend of mine from the community speak about the mental struggles which really opened my eyes! I wanted to share a couple of them with you guys to spread awareness on this extremely unaware topic.  Right from coming out of the closet to dealing with people talking about you behind your back, all this adds up to a lot of mental burden which often has dire consequences. Over the years, the LGBTQ+ community has confronted extreme prejudice, discrimination and violence due to their sexual o...
