It’s been 3 months since I went on an SSRI for anx It’s been 3 months since I went on an SSRI for anxiety.

I had this moment yesterday while I was sitting with my grandma, brother, and nephew. This feeling of pure bliss. And also realizing how far I’ve come in my anxiety journey.

We were eating lunch outside. The food was great. The view was perfect. There was a slight breeze. And I was in awe of thinking about my grandma hanging out with her great grandson.

I thought about how I was feeling a year ago right now. Anything outside of my usual life routine in nyc often times resulted in bad anxiety.

I didn’t realize how much my anxiety had taken from me. But then I have a day like yesterday where I can *feel* just how different I feel.

If you’re struggling know that you’re not the only one 💗 And it does get better. Little by little.

23 Things I Learned From 23

993944_10201733308356805_888181770_n

1. Sometimes the perfect Friday night is sitting on my couch, in pajamas, eating delivery Indian food while watching Say Yes to the Dress.

2. You shouldn’t necessarily do what you love for a career, but you should love whatever it is you decide to do.

3. It’s crazy but you can get offered a job thanks to your blog and twitter.

4. I still love musical theater, a lot. Ever since seeing Hedwig on Sunday I’ve been listening to the music on repeat.

5. There are few things in life that can’t be fixed by eating vegan peanut butter cheesecake

6. It’s better to be nice to everyone, you never know who you will meet again or need a favor from.

7. I am capable of running not one, but two half marathons.

8. Don’t just sit around and complain when you are unhappy about how things are going—DO something about it

9. Having my friends from high school, sleep away camp and day camp move into NYC is pretty amazing

10. Going back to school at 23 is more difficult than I thought it would be

11. Los Angeles is still my second favorite city, but I’m not sure I could ever live there.

12. Disneyland and Disney World will never lose their magic.

13. People will continue to mistake you for a college freshman and ask you if you live in the dorms. Sigh.

14. Sometimes it’s hard to see how far you’ve come, but don’t forget that progress is always being made.

15. A day without peanut butter is a sad day.

16. Sushi is delicious! Why did I ever stop eating fish!?

17. Good things don’t come to those to wait, it comes to those who work hard.

18. I am stronger than I think I am.

19. I don’t have to be so gosh darn independent all the time, it’s okay to need help from other people.

20. I’m okay with being an uptight, calculated person who refuses to drink alcohol. That’s just who I am.

21. I already knew this since I’ve been with Jeremy since I was 21, but when the right guy comes along he will love you despite all your bizarre, weird hang ups.

22. I’d rather be real and true to myself than a fake bubbly person.

23. Everything happens for a reason, sometimes it’s just hard to see what that reason is at first

Come with me for a solo evening to go see The Outs Come with me for a solo evening to go see The Outsiders: A New Musical on Broadway (#ad)

As a former theater major who now works in the book industry, I was especially excited to see this book to musical adaptation on Broadway. I remember loving the book in middle school and I was absolutely blown away seeing the musical. My jaw literally dropped at some points, I was so in awe. 

 @outsidersmusical is now playing at the Jacobs Theatre on Broadway. Be sure to get your tickets at outsidersmusical.com or via the link in my bio.
