I'm a 33 year old daughter of immigrants who deals with chronic illnesses and mental health issues every day but I've learned to find the magic in the moments that make life truly worth living. Ive been the therapist of my family and friends and strangers since I was a teenager. Perhaps its the parenfied eldest daughter role, or an enmeshed codependent mom/daughter relationship or my neurodivefgence and chronic illnesses that made me feel so misunderstood and in return I just want others to feel understood and truly held in their pain and joy.
