Hey there!
Hello, my name is Stan, and welcome to Long Drives in the Dark! This is a collection of two types of blogs, one with personal journals for lack of a better word, and the second is one in which I talk about the things that we don’t want to talk about, which is to say, important topics and things I feel incredibly passionate about. I am a lover of music, writing, and all things travel. Feel free to take a look around, I hope you’ll decide to stay!
The Two Blogs
The place that this site started! I like to say this is a collection of journals from my very own personal life. Here I give updates on what I’m doing, or changes happening in the world around me! Think of it like a blog version of a YouTube vlog channel, I take you on a journey of my personal life every now and then.
This page is kind of like sitting down in front of a crackling fire with a warm drink and having a chat. I like to talk about the things that we typically don’t want to talk about. Quite the oxymoron am I right? Here, I talk about social issues, rant about society, share my mental health journey, and even share my own poetry!
Explore some of my recent post from both pages:

I went shopping yesterday and got some summery clothes and I am actually so excited about them. I’ve got a lot thatContinue reading “Here’s to looking forward🚍🛣”
- Let’s have a chat about healing (part I)TW: self-harm, severe depression, binge eating disorder tendencies, and graphic panic attacks centered around food and intense nausea. Please be safe. Let’s talk about healing. I’m going to dive right into my own personal experiences with healing from my past if that’s okay with you! It wasn’t until recently that I discovered just how muchContinue reading “Let’s have a chat about healing (part I)”
