i was crying when i dropped my husband off at work this morning, and as i rounded the bends of the parking lot to return to the main road, i saw a cardinal.
Well said! This post very much resonated with me. It’s hard to be mentally well even in the best of times, and these certainly aren’t the best of times. I try to focus on finding small moments of joy where I can more than the big wins most days. Those keep me going.
Sending you big hugs. Thank you for sharing this vulnerable post. I’ve been depressed since I was 16, I’m 31. Also diagnosed a few years ago with PTSD from what happened when I was 16. It’s been waves over the years but the worst was when I was living in a city far away from my friends and family, working remote, living with only my then finance, now husband. So I relate. However, we’ve since moved home and I should be so happy. But honestly, it’s creeping back in again. It’s situational, but it’s also not. For me.
I loved reading your list of things you are living for. I’m feeling inspired to sit and write about my own feelings right now, and maybe ponder the whys of living along side the dark, deep pain that won’t seem to leave. Both are me. Thank you again. 🖤
