ABOUT ME
Hey there! I'm Briana, but you can call me Bri. I'm a college student in Indiana studying English with a minor in Film, and as you can guess, I'm a huge geek for stories! I love stories of any kind, be they from shows, movies, books, or music! For me, this blog is a place to tell my story and to celebrate the stories of others.
​
The past few years, I have struggled greatly with depression and anxiety, which have often manifested themselves in self-harm, disordered eating, and other side effects. I've had a lot of ups and downs in my mental health journey, and many times I turned to stories to guide me through the adventure.

You might think that movies have no place on a blog about mental health. However! Movies are often a solace to people struggling with mental illness, a place to escape; furthermore, movies often portray mental illness in various (sometimes incorrect) ways! What better way to protect mental health than to investigate its usage in media or to suggest visual avenues of escape for those struggling? I think you'll find that movies and mental health have everything to do with each other. :)
