Ephemeral Disaster — Nerve 10 Mental Health

Hi there.

Look, I have a birthmark on the top of my head.

Welcome to Nerve 10.

I’m Jordan, and I created this site because I couldn’t find mental health information on the Internet that I could relate to.

Nerve 10 is where you will find the most accessible, most meaningful mental health stories and poetry on the world wide web.

My goal is not to regurgitate technical terms and generic information—it’s to create a more realistic and helpful mental health narrative.

what if your life

is a disaster?

residue from an earthquake

rubble upon rubble

and the sights that you see

a painful reality

are shards

of now-molten glass

from the latest cataclysm

that is your compounding nightmare

But what if your life

is a kaleidoscope?

of ephemeral lights

of hope and despair

of pain and delight

and the sights that you see

they crowd out the blight

to reveal a wondrous thing

it’s you, in your life
