menhera community

i wanted to write this blog months ago but i haven't been feeling very well.

i rejoined the menhera community last year. when i was in highschool the community meant a lot to me during the time i was in the mental hospital so often. i was at my worse mentally and the community supported me so much. it taught me so much education about mental health and gave my a community of other people who could understand what living with mental illness was like as a disability.

im still menhera but i stepped away from the community in 2020 and it became harder to find other menhera. 

coming back to the community took a lot because i was dealing with my dissociative amnesia it made it extremely fucking hard to open up and be myself online. but recently i started meeting and talking with other menhera and it was awesome. 

i got so tired of the internet seeing mental illness as taboo or fetishizing it. all of my friends had so much stigma around mental illness they werent supporting my recovery well. when i started sharing with other menhera i felt connected again and immediately started to improve.
