Some new pictures of Adele have been released and you can tell she’s lost a lot of weight. I’ve seen so much praise for her on my Twitter feed. Everyone’s either talking about how great she looks or how they think she looks too thin. Why does everyone feel they need to give their opinion about her body?

Over the past month, I have finally started working with a therapist.

This is something I’ve been putting off for years. Sitting in a room with someone I don’t know talking about feelings and trauma while they make little notes doesn't sit well with me. It’s an awkward situation to walk in to from the start.

I have always struggled with what I assumed was depression. Some days were worse than others. I’ve had these intense shifts in my mood since I was a teenager. I thought it was just my hormones changing and everyone goes through an angsty teen phase. But my teen angst didn’t go away. It’s not so much angst as it is extreme emotions.
