โDear stranger, eighteen months ago I was exactly where you are. For me it was a failed transfer last month. I've started painting again. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do.โ
โIf you've just found this place, I was in the same place nearly four years ago. Back then it was a failed transfer last month. 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
โI was in the same place this time last year. The worst part was a low AMH result. Last month I had people round for dinner. You're not on your own.โ
โFor anyone new to this: I've been there. For me it was in 2023. Back then it was the cost, we remortgaged. I went on holiday in the summer and actually relaxed. It changes. It really does. Keep going, even slowly.โ
