ABOUT DIARY OF A FLOPPING FISH

Diary of a Flopping Fish is written and managed by Rin L’amy, a content creator and writer based in New Jersey, USA.

​

If you are someone who feels like you’ve been struggling your way through life, this blog is for you. I write from lived experience shaped by trauma, resilience, and the ongoing work of showing up for myself while building a meaningful life.

​

Diary of a Flopping Fish was created in 2016 as a place to share my writing and serve as a creative outlet. At the time, I knew nothing about SEO or WordPress, and Canva was barely on the radar. Over the years, the site has grown alongside me. While my path into mental health work didn’t look the way I originally imagined, my interest in understanding people and telling their stories never changed.

​

In 2025, I graduated with high honors with an Associate of General Studies from Delta Community College, focusing my studies on psychology, sociology, and media writing. I used that foundation to transform Diary of a Flopping Fish into a space where difficult experiences can be named, understood, and shared—where a quiet voice gets loud.

​

I write Diary of a Flopping Fish to help people who don’t yet have the words for what they’re going through, and to help those who care about them better understand how to show up. Here, I cover topics related to mental health, trauma recovery, domestic violence, and the realities of healing, without easy answers or forced positivity.
