โReading this late at night? I've been there. Two years ago, that was me. Back then it was beta blockers before presentations. Yesterday I booked a holiday. Keep going, even slowly.โ
โWhen it first starts, you might think you are just tired. That is how it was for me. But if your stomach is in knots every morning and you avoid the phone and cry in the toilets, that is not tired. That is something else. And it is not a weakness in you. I am not going to tell you it goes away quickly. For me, it has not. But I am not crying in the work toilets anymore. I am still here, and I am learning to ask for help. You can too. Start small. One phone call, one appointment. That's enough for today.โ
โFor whoever is where I was: Two years ago, that was me. For me it was avoiding phone calls. This morning I sang in the car. It's slow, but it does come back.โ
โA note for the next person. I was in the same place in 2022. I remember avoiding phone calls like it was yesterday. I've started painting again. You get yourself back in pieces. One day at a time.โ
