Short answer… probably not likely.

But placebos can have a powerful effect, right? So, if I am convincing enough and tell myself it over and over again, maybe it will. I wish that there was such a simple explanation to what has been going on with my body, but the reality is that the trauma runs a hell of a lot deeper than a refreshing glass of orange juice can fix.

But it will help the vitamin deficiency. The kind that comes from avoiding the sun, from staying indoors too long, which is easy to do during the short winter days. Cause it’s easy to fall apart. Far harder to put yourself back together.

Though it is never as simple as drinking your juice and taking your supplements, it is a small step. And right now, that’s all I can manage. So, I’ll drink my orange juice, stew in my thoughts, and maybe one day, my mind won’t talk.

Nice to virtually meet you!

Welcome to my blog.

This is a space where I share my work, discuss the trials and tribulations of writing, and celebrate the art of bringing a world to life with a pen and paper (or in this case a keyboard and a screen). It is a place filled with typos and awkward sentences, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Thank you for visiting! I hope you stay awhile.

If you like what you see, I also have an Instagram account (linked below) if you’re interested! Come give me a follow 🙂
