Whatever the individual reasons, whether the cold of winter in the northern hemisphere or the stress of this so-called festive season, many people's mental health suffers during the holidays. The Well Project has a rich collection of resources about mental health, tailored for women living with HIV.
A Girl Like Me
A Girl Like Me (AGLM), a program of The Well Project, is a blog where women across the gender spectrum can share their experiences and promote understanding of HIV. Millions of women around the globe are living with HIV, yet many feel they are alone in their disease and isolated in their day-to-day experiences. The goals of AGLM are to help normalize HIV; and to create a safe space for women living with HIV from around the world to speak out and share their experiences – with each other, and with those seeking a support community.

I come here when things are rough. When my head is so full I have to put it on paper.
