What Would Your Invisible Illness look Like?
I wanted to wait to post this entry, because I was thinking of something bigger. But, since this has been on my mind so persistently, I think it’s best to release it now I’ve been thinking a lot of about invisible illnesses, mainly because, I have one, and as of now, is consuming more of my [...]
