βI'm not going to tell you it gets easier right away, because it didn't for me. The first few months I felt like I'd walked out of a party and everyone was still inside having fun. What helped was finding one or two people who didn't need me to explain everything. And taking the train and just watching the city go by. You don't have to have a new belief system ready. You just have to get through the week.β
βDear stranger, i was where you are eighteen months ago. My husband still believes, every single day. I'm volunteering here now. You get yourself back in pieces. From someone who gets it.β
βEighteen months ago I was exactly where you are. I remember when left the church I grew up in, like it was yesterday. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. The bad days get further apart. Praying for you.β
βTo whoever needs this: I was in the same place in 2022. Left the church I grew up in. That was every day. I've started painting again. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. One day at a time.β
