Hi. My name is Angelique. I am a mental health advocate and the founder of Tai Nation.

Thank you for choosing to click on my website. 

This is my story…

I have battled and overcome addictions, emotional abuse, cutting, an eating disorder and abandonment issues. I too know what it feels like to be in a room filled with people yet feel alone. To be misunderstood. Knowing that you are loved but for some reason not seen or heard. My mother died when I was 3 and then my father when I was 11. I am from a middle class family where mental issues were deemed as taboo and therefore not faced or dealt with, hence I suffered in silence. I learned from a young age to internalize because even though people were there, there was no space to speak. Eventually my compounded trauma manifested in my late twenties and I was diagnosed with clinical depression and anxiety.
