Nobody talks about how exhausting it is to live in that space between “things will get better” and “I can’t handle this anymore.” It’s like your emotions are constantly swinging, leaving you both hopeful and defeated in the same day.
Me sending encouraging messages to my friends and loved ones, telling them that things will work out, while I’m on the 4th mental breakdown of the week.
I think it’s so cute and funny that people think I call Chartez “Fanda” but Fanda was our word we made up for forever and always lol he’s not Fanda I love and miss him Fanda 😂
My therapist told me:
“When a person grows up feeling unseen, they learn to love by over-giving. They pour into everyone else, hoping that, one day, someone will finally pour back into them. So they become the care taker. The fixer. The one who shows up, even when no one shows up for them.”
And the hardest part? Deep down, they're not trying to be strong. They're just waiting for someone to do for them what they've spent their whole life doing for everyone else.

I just found out that talking to yourself & making up scenarios in your head is sign of mental illness…. Baby I be acting out interviews, acceptance speeches etc. I’m too far GONE
Not all panic attacks are loud.
Some look like:
• Staring at nothing for 15 minutes.
• Mind going completely blank.
• Sudden nausea.
• Needing to lie on the floor.
• Feeling detached from your body.
