Tara S

Hello, my name is Tara and I'm a stay at home mother and wife. I recently started a blog to discuss how my life has changed and the experiences I've had since being diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder, Mixed Connective Tissue Disorder and fibromyalgia. I hope that by opening up about my personal journey it will help others who are also suffering. So many people struggle in silence because of the stigma surrounding mental health issues and invisible illnesses. It is my goal to get people to start talking about depression. I want to make people realize there is help and it does not mean you are weak or crazy. I also hope to focus on how my husband and children were affected by my illness. I am not a doctor, therapist or medical professional. I am not providing medical advice or suggesting anyone use my blog as such. I am simply sharing my story in the hopes it will help someone else.
