Mental health is a fundamental right; the future of humanity depends on it.
Psychology on the go
That dream about the dinosaur in a leotard, the moments you said something you wish you hadn’t, even the words that spill out before you know you’re going to say them—these all come from the small, constant workings of your mind. Your thoughts and behaviors make your life possible and shape the world around you. Aside from other human minds, your own is the most complex structure we know of, guided by rules that remain mysterious. Maybe our brains aren’t quite advanced enough to fully understand themselves, but that has never stopped us from trying.

. "Positive Thoughts, Positive Life"
Introduction Every human being is shaped by the quality of his thoughts. Our actions, habits, and ultimately our destiny are deeply influenced by what we constantly feed into our minds. The saying “You are what you think” is not just a philosophical idea—it is a truth backed by psychology, science, and even spirituality. When a person fills his mind with positive, constructive, and uplifting thoughts, he attracts a better life. On the other hand, negative, fearful, or destructive thoughts create stress, failure, and unhappiness.

Behind the Screen: How E-Commerce Is Rewriting Human Life
You probably didn't even notice it. Maybe it was just another night. You were tired, half-asleep, your phone in hand. You opened an app without thinking, browsed through a few products, read some suspiciously similar reviews, tapped "Buy Now," and went back to what you were doing. Somewhere in the distance, a warehouse light came on, you scanned a barcode, and a package arrived. A few days later, a small box arrived at your door, and the moment was complete.

The Month Everyone Gets Wrong About Suicide
The public conversation around suicide repeats a mistake every year. As soon as December hits, social media fills with somber graphics, dramatic pleas, and emotional declarations insisting that the holidays are the most dangerous time for suicidal behavior. The message is well-intended, but it is wrong. The data has been stable for decades.

Why Do We Stay In Mediocre Relationships?
Today marks 52 weeks since I ended my last long-term relationship (just shy of two years). I remember the day it ended better than most of the rest of the relationship; not surprising, as the relationship, on the whole, wasn’t one that rocked my socks off. It wasn’t a bad relationship, precisely, it just wasn’t that great. We had some good times, some rough ones, and there was definitely some compatibility to it, but, when it all comes down to it, I just wasn’t that into it.

Anxiety... Autism... or both?. Content Warning.
I've been having a lot of meltdowns and shutdowns in this past year. It's been almost 9 months since I was diagnosed with autism. It was an expensive diagnosis that has honestly been more problematic than helpful (but hopefully that will change soon).

Dear Men: It's Okay to Cry. Content Warning.
Several months ago, I wrote a story about MLB All-Star Jarren Duran and his struggles with his mental health. There was a docuseries in 2024 where he discussed his suicide attempts in 2022. Besides the homophobic slur he uttered towards a fan that occurred in August 2024, which I still hold him accountable for, I was empathetic towards his plight and also commended him for being open and honest about his personal battles. Many people believe that athletes have perfect lives, but in reality, there's no such thing as a perfect life. In fact, it doesn't exist. At the end of the day, they're regular people just like us and go through hardships. You never know what goes on behind the scenes in their lives.

The ability to remain silent in a noisy world
Today's world seems full of noise—people talking, cars moving, screens buzzing, thoughts swirling. Everywhere there's a rush, competition, comparison, and the pressure of expectations. But amidst all this, there's a skill that few people learn: the skill of remaining silent. This skill isn't simple; it comes from within—from understanding, calmness, and patience.
