Understanding The Relationship Between Psychoneuroimmunology and Childhood Trauma : Why It Matters
Childhood psychosocial stressors can impact the development of the immune system, which can then affect the development of the brain and its long-term functioning due to the two-way relationship between the immune system and the brain. Psychoneuroimmunology of early-life stress can provide a novel framework for comprehending and treating psychopathology associated with childhood trauma, based on observational human studies and experimental animal models. Remarkably, several incidents involved once-healthy people who became mentally ill despite not having any physical injuries—the so-called "railway spine."

The (In)Compatability of Social Justice & Social Anxiety
I read a lot. I read on social media, the perspectives of people outside of my limited demographic and experience. I read Native Son and Citizen. I watched documentaries about drag queens and the Rodney King riots. I so desperately wanted to do something—even when basic daily functions were difficult.

Surface Pressure That Just Won't Stop
Disney Has Changed The Way They Make Me Cry As a child, I cried over the death of Bambi's mom. I hyperventilated in fear as a 5-year-old watching Snow White for the first time, and she ran screaming through the dark forest after the huntsmen tried to take her heart. I cried when the curse was broken for the Beast and he discovered love. When Dumbo was abused and mistreated and separated from his mother I sobbed. I forced myself to watch it until the end (I am a childhood abuse survivor, this movie was very triggering for me in a lot of ways) and found relief in the ending. But I refuse ever to watch it again - and I haven't shown my daughters that movie OR Pinocchio. I know those movies would trigger me to this day.

Of Monsters and Women
Oh, I’m so ecstatic to delve into the mastermind behind the worlds first science fiction thriller, and legendary monster icon, Frankenstein. Not only was Frankenstein written by a woman, but it was written around the severity and importance of mental health. In fact, I think the entire essence of the gothic novel is based solely on mental health. Mary Shelley creates the monster a yearning, and melancholic character. If you haven’t read Frankenstein it is a freaking phenomenal piece of literature.
