@edasdiary92: Please read this: Burnout changed me so much that people who met me afterward probably think that’s who I’ve always been. But it isn’t. I wasn’t always the angry one. I wasn’t always so reactive. I had just spent years holding everything in until one day… I couldn’t anymore. People told me, “You have to understand us too. You’re not the only one going through something.” I know. But it’s hard to carry someone else’s broken pieces when you’re still trying to find your own. For so many years, I helped other people put their puzzles back together. Somewhere along the way, I lost all of my own pieces. So if you’re in that season of your life… where you’re just trying to put yourself back together, please don’t feel guilty for choosing yourself. That’s okay. One day, when you’re a little more whole again, you’ll have more to give. But for now… it’s okay to save yourself first. 🫂 #HealingJourney #burnout #mentalheath #traumahealing #peoplepleaser
