Been determined for 6 years.6 years of depression .Failed attempts to kill myself ,self harm and daydreams of dying more than I can even stop to think to keep track of.Ive come to just accept that I can’t speak for everyone but I am one of those who everyday have to FIGHT to stay here ,fight my mind .Know it might seem dark but there’s no light without just that .Stay strong

[@juditthv]

Hello, I do not speak English, could you tell me what you mean when you say "with anyone but me" if it is "with anyone except me" or "with nobody but me" is that I have those two options in Spanish , and how both can mean the same, I don't know which one is :(

[@juditthv]

Also when he says "happy is holy" does he mean "to be happy is to be holy"? please :(

This is an artist. To create something with the pieces of yourself that are crumbling and that so many people can relate to this... Well, to me that is Art in the Form of music, and something that is rare in this time! Thank you Joy and keep on keeping on Girl!

[@connorcollister5231]

That's what makes us a different breed from the rest 🙏💯💞

[@penelopepegg7834]

it isn't rare at all, all music is artwork. you just have a particular taste, and I hope you find more work you like so you can find it less rare! these past few years theres been a lot of great young talent growing out here :))

[@cataleyasanchez459]

@Penelope Pegg to say "all music is art" is a very Kind but also naive thought. :) When most of stuff is commercialized, just to be sold and heard from a bigger audience. And not every person who sings and produces has the boldness to do unique things that dont flow in the mainstream type of music, but representing him and their view on the world. Of course there are good artist, singers and producers out there. But to find edges and boldness through their style of music you actually do not see it in many artist. Thats why I wrote what I wrote. Joys music is just something Else for our times of music. She has a very unique sound and a message that some wouldnt even dare to tell, and like I mentioned in my previous comment.... that to me is Art 👍🏽💯

My anxiety is killing me. My anxiety is too hard that I only think “ love me, or leave me”. I’ve always hated the way I am. I always felt like I was at the wrong place. I was the burden. I was the “ be best friends, or don’t talk” type of girl. Anxiety is soo heavy that when ever I talk, it keep leaning on me that it’s so heavy I start to shake. I try my best to push it back. I’ve been trying to see the light. I’ve always waited for my “knight in shining armor”. But know i feel like empress(in tarot card). I try scream back at the voice in my head. I’m trying to survive anxiety.💚

Remember that you are the universe you are the all you are not your physical earth problems you transcend that you are not your thoughts your thoughts have no power over you for they are nothing more then thoughts and thoughts are only as powerful as you let them be so by just observing your thoughts it can bring you back to your divinity for even if you have intrusive thoughts YOU ARE NOT YOUR THOUGHTS,THOUGHTS ARE JUST THOUGHTS anxiety is false (you are still valid tho) but anxiety stems from the future and depression stems from being caught up in the past there is ONLY HERE AND NOW BE HERE AND THE HERE AND NOW you are amazing no matter what anyone says I love you,heal yourself,look up shadow work and the microcosm and macrocosm that is when you will become the beautiful being that you are,much love💗✨
