โI was where you are eighteen months ago. I remember a spnosor I text like it was yesterday. I've started painting again. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. From someone who gets it.โ
โFor whoever is where I was: A few years back, that was me. Day 43, every single day. I laugh properly again. It doesn't stay this heavy. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.โ
โIf you're scared right now, I get it. Two years ago, that was me. The worst part was work drinks and saying no. I wake up most days without that dread. It changes. It really does. Sending love.โ
โTo anyone just starting: I know it feels impossible right now. The mornings are the hardest, but they do get easier. Find someone you can text when you want a drink, even if it's just to say you're struggling. Take it hour by hour if you have to. And don't beat yourself up for the past. Your kids just want you present. I'm still figuring it out, but I'm here.โ
