Welcome to Psychology Pit

Previously known as Lacuna; this site now offers easier access to mental health blogs tailored just for you. I run an active blog (since 2020) where I publish articles three times a month.

My blog helps me connect with diverse audiences; after all, it is easier to share your stories and secrets with a stranger. So join me on this journey, you might like my blog.

About Me

Hi, my name is Shivanshee Rathore (Shiv/Shivs). I am an aspiring researcher passionate about advancing mental health awareness through my blog.

Writing has been a comforting shield to me. I remember the very first time I attempted to write a story about a goldfish and killed it in three sentences. My English teacher was horrified.

So, I hope that after all these years, unlike my professor, you find comfort in my words.

I mostly write about mental health, activism, and my favourite book reads.
