When I was 13 years old, I was diagnosed with a mental health illness: an eating disorder. At the time, I was in complete denial. As a 13-year-old, the word "mental illness" felt weird, taboo, and scary all at once, and I refused to be labeled by it. For 10 years, I felt a big disconnect between how I acted and the person I wanted to reflect. I felt trapped, judged, and above all guilty because it's something that not only affects the person who suffers from it but also everyone around them. I have always said that our mind is our most powerful tool and if we use it the right way, we can overcome any obstacle. However, there I was - being destroyed and almost defeated by my own mind. It was this incongruence that inspired the song... I made this song for everyone who has ever felt trapped in their own mind, unable to live authentically/true to who they are. I hope this song reminds you that you’re not alone, and there is a way out❤️
