Nefarious - Amazon Prime

Nefarious is a suspense/thriller movie (2023) starring Sean Patrick Flanery (The Boondock Saints, Insight) and Jordan Belfi (Entourage, All American). I randomly picked this one since it was on my "Based on what you watched" list on Prime.

Now, I am a sucker for a demon possession movie... and you want to know why? Because it COULD happen! Just like home invasion movies - that shit could happen to anyone! Needless to say, I was not disappointed.

Regardless of how it comes about, MDD affects sleep, appetite, energy, ability to focus, and interest in usually enjoyable things (Cleveland Clinic, 2022). Coping with MDD is multi-faceted. There is not just one solution or magic pill that improves or cures mental health – it is a mixture of things that help people (and me) cope.

Addicted to the Jazz

When you mention 'change,' most people become anxious, break out in a cold sweat, and dread what comes next. However, there are a few of us who are...Addicted to the Jazz. 

I first heard this phrase from my counselor from eons ago, and I will never forget it.

First of all, my Sun sign is Sagittarius. If you're unfamiliar with zodiac signs, Sagittariuses are unafraid of change and actually embrace it. We also like to explore the unknown and learn all we can about new things. We're independent and don't back down to a challenge. In other words, we are always searching for the next thing; thus, I am ADDICTED to the JAZZ. But let me explain further...
