Depression is embarrassing because sometimes it makes you miss appointments and not return phone calls and when the fog start to lift you have to do a whole apology tour. That stuff is crazy.
If you’re pregnant right now or have kids already, please don’t let ANYONE make you think your kid ruined your life. Yes it’s hard, yes there will be sleepless nights, yes things might take a little longer to get together, but you can still do it all with child.
I am beginning to realize that I grew up too young, fell in love too soon, and faced my toughest battles far too early. Now, as a overstimulated adult who has spent most of her life in fight-or-flight mode, I’m just tryna become the best version of myself.
