It saddens me to write this and I have been trying to avoid this for a few days, but it wouldn't be fair to the followers and readers not to release something.
It hurts, really hurts, that I have to walk away and shut down such an incredible change and movement. My heart will always be pushing forward and striving to make an impact in the mental health community.
I have met and came to know so many phenomenal, creative, and passionate people. You all have made this magazine possible. Truly. Without your minds and passion none of this would have the beauty it has. I'm forever in debt to you all, because you have taken the time to give the magazine the contact and connection to the audience it deserves. That is the purpose I live for. To give others an opportunity to express themselves without judgement, without anyone telling them they are different. Embrace it. Never change who you are.
So, what's next? My purpose and passion will always and forever be to give others a voice in the mental health community. I'm still here, but this door is shutting while another door opens for another path to fulfill. I began my journey in the medical field and now starting to explore the medical side of mental health. This has been equally exciting and busy for me, but rewarding nonetheless. Perhaps in the future we can reshape the magazine and fuel it, but for now, we bid farewell.
To my readers, thank you for enjoying the content that these remarkable and talented people had put so much effort into sharing.
This experience has been one of this most rewarding journeys I have been on. I'll never forget it, ever.
Again, thank you ALL for the support.
Love,
-A
