What remains
Dear friend
This post is not meant to name or ostracise you. Rather the opposite.
This is fine
Dear friend
I'm sorry I haven't written to you in a while. I would be lying if I said things were okay. Because honestly? They aren't.
Neglect
Dear friend
Happy new year.
I've been thinking about how overbearing I became to my friends who matter most. How I kept seeking validation, how I kept asking them to soothe me and ground me because I - somehow - failed to self-soothe.
What's my motivation?
Dear friend
Motivation for change is a really difficult topic. I, myself, struggle to find a realistic balance between wanting to grow for myself, and wanting to grow for other people.
Acceptance
Dear friend
Last night, something finally clicked that had never clicked before. I do not have to be ‘the depressed one’, I get it now.
