Ahh, I love the realness and vulnerability. Also, the journaling why you pee in the morning (brilliant!), the bird app (gonna get this), and the forest near you (beautiful). Thank you for writing! ✨
Awe, thanks Alix. So generous of you to read & comment. This was a loathsome post to finish😣but I am determined to just keep swimming and believe it will get easier. (The positing anyway😂) Clearly these shares are not my best writing as I aim to just honestly connect right now, rather than showcase any “maybe/minuscule potential” I might have with this craft 🤪😂 .
Still it makes sense to me that the more I do what seems daunting, the more I will grow my muscle, temper the fear monsters & one day maybe 🤔 it can feel filled with ease, at least some of the time. Maybe?
In any case, I’m glad my share resonated. Life has felt hard. The basics even. I work to not fall victim to self-destructive narratives waiting in the winds. On the flip side, I muse that perhaps this distinguishes me from the average therapist (if there is such a thing🤪)- that I am such cozy bedfellows with anxiety, self-doubt, & near obsessive angst over things I need to let go? That I feel so marred myself that the last thing I am ever likely to do is judge? I hope so. Xoxox

Yes, I’ve been struggling with the basics too. This really helps, to hear I’m not alone in that struggle. ❤️❤️❤️
