Jessica, i love seeing this. Your ability to be present and connect with your dad is beautiful. I love how engaged he is with you in this conversation. I can feel the honesty you both share toward one another. Thank you for sharing this. I am a big fan of the work and love you share with and about your dad. ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you Savanna! It has been a lot to get to this place of healing and now being able to share it with the world. Your kind words fuel me to keep going!!!
Jessica you are so loving, and brave, and vulnerable, and wise, and kind in this interview with your father. He is so lucky that you reconnected with him, and I think you feel that way too, despite the pain, that it also brought love, and understanding, and connection, and even joy into an equation - relationship - which before held primarily fear and pain. I am sorry for your loss, and so glad that you could both experience healing time together, and loving each other, before his death. You are an incredible person, and I wish you the best.
Thank you for covering this. When Covid was the initial stage of being discharged publicly I noticed a huge increase of medicinal shifts in prescriptions for anxiety. Whomever received Xanax were switched to Klonopin. From 30 MG per month to 10 MG. Similar story in ten people that lived in all different states. Be sure to regularly monitor things like this and review the physician assigned to your charts no matter the diagnosis. Be safe ❤
My OCD meds don't work for me but I sometimes take them to make my family happy, but I totally understand when he admits he stopped taking his meds when he felt better. My OCD comes and goes just naturally and it doesn't get better because of my meds.....it's like a roller coaster
I so appreciate you sharing what it is like for you. I have so many theories and hearing your experience helps me and I imagine many others reading this. I believe there is a different way for everyone with experiences with OCD, bipolar, schizophrenia, and more to live more fully (if even that is the way to say it). I don't have the answers, yet, but it's conversations like this that will help us unearth the possibilities. Thank you for being a part of such an important conversation 💜
I really liked your soft white underbelly, this is cool to actually see you with your father. Youre a beautiful angel and remind me of my mother in do many ways❤❤
What a compliment to remind you of your mother! I love that you enjoyed seeing me with my dad. While there were a lot of hard moments, there were TONS of special ones too!!! He is quite the character and lived life his way!!!

You are soooo right that I gained so much too! I suspect you are one wise, loving, and brave soul too!!! Keep shining your light!!!
This was so honest. I have a schizophrenic brother and can relate to much of this. Sending you love
I so appreciate you sharing and see it as even more divinely that our lives were brought together.
