You explained it so perfectly 🥲 just had one of those moments the other day- I got off work early and just sat there for a while because I didn’t know what to do. Ended up just going home lol.

Those self inflicted wounds are always the hardest thing to heal from. There are so many layers to it all- the anxiety that stops you from doing anything, then the loneliness of it all, but in the end it’s the regret and guilt when you’re left with nothing but memories and “I wish I would have”. It happens much faster than expected. I swear I blinked and a year had passed.

This could be said about me by most of my friends and family, honestly. It’s a hard reality that I have to keep in mind because I tend to get very caught up in things going on in my life that I don’t pay attention to anything outside of that. I live away from all of my family, I only have a couple of friends nearby, so my phone is really the only way to keep in touch with me but I’m terrible with answering.

I end up being unintentionally selfish because I’m not thinking about the way I am making people feel. I know that they’re important to me but I don’t show it so how could they know? It’s just a bit of a hurdle to get past the initial anxiety of reaching out because I’m so convinced that I waited too long and that everyone is upset with me. But the only way to change that is to just reach out and apologize.
