seeking help for your psychological issues is an act of immense courage. i will always be proud of those who take this step and assume responsibility of their own happiness.
you can be kind and still have strong boundaries in place.
reminders for whoever needs them:
Some days, it is easy to feel as though everything around is much larger than us. It can be an overwhelming feeling when one feels insignificant, a small particle against this huge universe. It is natural to feel powerless that way.
However, some may also feel the insignificance of their existence in ways quite tragic. Sometimes, a lone thought about how we don’t add value to the lives of those around us may settle in our heads. It makes a cottage for itself and feeds on our vitality like a parasite.
Maybe someone (unfairly) told us/made us believe that we don’t matter. That no matter what we did, it was all futile. We couldn’t be what anyone needed. We couldn’t make anything worthy of love out of ourselves. It doesn’t matter if we’re around or not.
Pause right here.
Unclench your jaw if you’re holding it and breathe expanding your belly.
All of that is not true. Nobody gets to decide how worthy you are but yourself. You’re a complete person with dreams swirling in your irises, with ambition beating in your chest, with love flowing through your veins. You’re here and that’s a beautiful thing.
You add value by just being. Your existence makes a difference.
A good one.
