Be Heard

Your actions and words matter more than you realize; your story can make a difference.  It might resonate with someone in need like no one else’s.

Some of the topics we’re very interested in hearing from you are:

  •  What are some things you wish your parents would know about you?
  •  Do you want to see a therapist? Why or why not?
  •  Are your parents happy or stressed? How do they affect you?
  •  What are you most stressed out about?
  •  What would you like to see “fixed” in our education or behavioral health systems?
  •  What do you wish you knew when you were growing up?

  • I WISH MY PARENTS HAD PAID ATTENTION TO NOTICE THAT I WAS BEEN BODY SHAMED. Or maybe they did, but just didn’t care or didn’t think it was important.

  • My parents worked alot, never supported my activities. Didn’t do anything to build my confidence, self esteem, so from that I learned the type of parent I wanted to be.

  • ADHD diagnosis

    I’ve struggled with ADHD my entire life and it definitely affected my mental health growing up. I always felt very different from my peers and “annoying” to my friends and family. This has led to feeling like a burden and constantly apologizing as an adult (among other issues). It’s so easy to think life is…

    I consider myself a cool grandma, but kids are so busy these days, and it’s hard to keep track of their interests. I’m grateful to have MyCuraJOY suggesting activities to share as a family. We stay in touch a lot more regularly now.

  • Emotional repression

    Growing up, any emotion but anger was a sign of weakness. My mom was emotionally open and honest, but my dad was suppressed and closed off. I would only express my emotions when I was alone and I would close myself off to anyone else. Turns out, emotional suppression is actually unhealthy. While my body…

  • A discovery of anxiety

    The concept of anxiety did not exist around me growing up. Yet, anxiety has been my biggest struggle in life and life at school did not make it better. The biggest problem is that not understanding what anxiety was made it even worse. We fear what we do not understand. I frantically trawled the internet…

  • How I found my strength again through pole dancing!

    When I was 12, I thought I would have been super successful by the time I was 40. Back then, I defined success by the material things you can see and touch. I envisioned myself with a nice power suit with large shoulder pads (please remember I grew up in the 80’s), single, working in…
