โA note for the next person. I was where you are a year and a half ago. For me it was scared to try again. I've started painting again. You get yourself back in pieces.โ
โI was where you are nearly four years ago. For me it was my partner grieving quietly. I've started painting again. From someone who gets it.โ
โPlease be gentle with yourself and I wasn't, and it made everything harder, what helped me was writing everything down before appointments, otherwise I forget it all, and talk to someone, even if it's just in here.โ
โHello from the other side of it. In 2023, that was me. The worst part was scared to try again. Now I sleep most nights. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold. Sending love.โ
