The pioneering blogger was known for her candid writing about motherhood and depression.
In 2012, Armstrong separated from her husband and business partner, Jon Armstrong, and lost a significant chunk of her readership. Three years later, she announced she was taking a break from blogging.
She returned full time in 2017 after undergoing experimental treatment for depression at the University of Utah, where she was put in a chemically induced coma designed to mimic brain death as part of a clinical trial. She wrote about her recovery from depression in her 2020 book,, and continued blogging intermittently in the following years. She wrote about her nonbinary child, Marlo, though she drew criticism for a bizarre rant in 2022 that included transphobic comments.
