    Jennifer Traig
    “We are legion, an army of millions. Though most of us will go to any length to hide our compulsions, we recognize one another. The guy using a paper towel to turn the restroom doorknob, the child counting his eyelashes, the old man wearing Kleenex boxes for shoes - these are my brothers. We are a secret tribe. We're like Freemasons, except that our secret handshake is followed by a vigorous washing session.”

    Emm Roy
    “Mental illness

    People assume you aren’t sick
    unless they see the sickness on your skin
    like scars forming a map of all the ways you’re hurting.

    My heart is a prison of Have you tried?s
    Have you tried exercising? Have you tried eating better?
    Have you tried not being sad, not being sick?
    Have you tried being more like me?
    Have you tried shutting up?

    Yes, I have tried. Yes, I am still trying,
    and yes, I am still sick.

    Sometimes monsters are invisible, and
    sometimes demons attack you from the inside.
    Just because you cannot see the claws and the teeth
    does not mean they aren’t ripping through me.
    Pain does not need to be seen to be felt.

    Telling me there is no problem
    won’t solve the problem.

    This is not how miracles are born.
    This is not how sickness works.”
