This is so interesting. I feel like communicating what you want/need and your partner doing it would mean that they value and love you enough to give you what you asked for. They can’t read your mind lol

After a teacher was fired for wearing the hijab. But that's what happens when you try to "fight racism" without acknowledging "systemic racism". You look like a clown. This is a fucking circus.
Therapy is 10/10 btw, highly recommend. It gives you back that power to no longer be controlled by the things you’ve been through. To create an identity and a life away from your trauma. The road ahead is long, but there is a glimmer of light. And that’s all I could ask for.
I don’t know who needs to hear this but rest is not a reward. You don’t have to earn rest. You need rest. You deserve rest. You are worthy of rest simply because you are a living being. And don’t ever feel guilty for taking time to rest.
