My year of swimming.

2019, my mental health, and staying above water.

On a boat in the middle of the ocean, all I can think is ‘when can I jump?’ I am obsessed. I crave the depth. To swim in the deepest water. To be a part of something huge, to feel small in the largest place.

To be alone in the center of everything.

I was standing in my living room when the wave hit me.
