I remember those in my family murdered in the Holocaust. May we speak and act against all forms of discrimination. May their memories be a blessing. #InternationalHolocaustRemembranceDay @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social @sobibor.bsky.social

The thing with mental health challenges is it feels like you are fighting alone (even if you're not), because the "enemy" is your own brain. If that makes sense. Anyways. Nerves on the fritz today.
