โHello from the other side of it. I was right where you are not that long ago, about a year. The worst part was cannot name it but I am not ok. I went on holiday in the summer and actually relaxed. It changes. It really does. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.โ
โI was where you are this time last year. It was a year where everything happened at once and I couldn't see past it. I got a new job this spring. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. Praying for you.โ
โIf you're scared right now, I get it. I was right where you are two years ago. I remember a year where everything happened at once like it was yesterday. Yesterday I booked a holiday. It doesn't stay this heavy. Be gentle with yourself.โ
โHello from the other side of it. I've been there. For me it was in 2023. Mine was lost my way somehow. Some weeks I don't think about it at all. It doesn't stay this heavy. xโ
