Times sure are odd, aren’t they?
You have this urge to get back to normalcy yet don’t quite know how to get there. Not only that, but it feels like you lost a piece of yourself during the past 1.5+ years. It’s left you continuing the habits that we adopted to survive being locked inside. Binge watching shows, mindlessly scrolling through apps, and isolating from others are just a few and you are SO not alone.
Maybe things you’ve worked hard to process through or move past have surfaced and leave you feeling even more frustrated that you haven’t healed as you thought or hoped.
Your thoughts of inadequacy and negative self talk are too loud to drown out and comparing yourself to others’ progress keeps you stuck. It feels impossible to get back to that person you used to be or wanted to be when life felt like it was worth living.
Of course it feels impossible.
If there were any way you could have figured this out on your own… I have no doubt you would have.
Your life is REALLY hard right now AND asking for help is a fabulous and courageous first step.
