My heart is broken today. One of my idols has passed. I loved Carrie Fisher not just for her iconic role as Princess Leia, for which she was such a badass, but for how she embraced her mental illnesses with open arms and fought to reduce the stigma of them. She's the reason I sought help with my mental issues years ago, and because of her I'll keep doing it.

This blog is going to be about both my mental health and recovery and how I go about doing it, which is mainly crafts. But today it's about mourning the passing of an amazing woman who has changed my life for the better.
