โHello from the other side of it. I was right where you are not that long ago, about a year. The worst part was embarrassed at school about lunches. I laugh properly again. Bit by bit it comes back. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.โ
โI was where you are eighteen months ago. For me it was cheap pasta every night. This week I went back to my evening class. The bad days get further apart.โ
โI know it feels like you're the only one. I was a bank manager, for heaven's sake, and I still had to use the food bank. The shame is the worst part, but it's not yours to carry. Start small: open one letter, ask about a payment plan, find out where the food bank is. No one there will judge you. And if you have kids, they won't remember the tough weeks as much as they'll remember you were there. It does get better, slowly.โ
โI was in the same place in 2022. It was the end of the month and I couldn't see past it. This year I did a 5k, slowly. The bad days get further apart. You're not on your own.โ
