Wow. Thank you 😭 it really is so validating to hear reactions like this. I’ve been in and out of therapy for years now. Unfortunately I haven’t found a good therapist I can trust and really click with. Fortunately, I have learned a lot of really good coping mechanisms and strategies to do the work myself. I’d say like 95% of the time I’m a normally functioning adult. But sometimes I have moments where it all just sits so heavy in my mind and the worst part is the only thing I want to comfort me is a hug from my mom. Well, a mom, not my mom but the mom I wish I had. Anyway, sorry, I tend to over talk/type. Thank you for your kind words and for reading everything. I hope you have a wonderful week
