Me. I felt that I was worth my own life.

My daughter. She has always been my best friend, and watching her grow from a little girl into a college student has been the most rewarding experience of my life.

It’s always been worth it. There is beauty everywhere. Watching nature just go on doing it’s thing while we panic about the unknown future is the biggest balm for the soul 🌳

I was so freaking low I could barely function. My brother, trying hard to find a way to help me, said “come on sis, consider the lilies of the goddamn field.” It made me laugh so hard and gave me a strange and wonderful new perspective.

I’m so sorry you felt like that. I totally understand. I’m glad you feel better.

I started a new job recently and then had my PTSD seriously triggered, plus a panic attack. Felt so on edge and low on emotional resources for over a week that I wasn’t myself and apparently really rubbed a few people the wrong way so I was called in for a talking to 😣. I let people know there were some personal things going on, but didn’t mention the PTSD—very unsure if that’s something to share, or if I’d be judged for it or... I don’t even know. Has anyone else dealt with PTSD and had it impact them at work, and how did you handle it?

My last therapist keeps coming up in my mind. I left her when I moved to a new area before COVID dug in and frankly it felt like leaving a girlfriend. She also disclosed in the final session that she was a member of AA and knew several of the people I occasionally discussed from the rooms. Her knowledge of the program certainly built trust with me early on, but it has been two years. I discussed it with my current therapist but she’s still in there. Any advice?
