Silence Was My Option 💙
I didn’t talk about my anxiety. Because if I said it out loud, it would make it real… and I didn’t want it to be mine. 😞
I couldn’t tell my husband or my son how I was really feeling — because how could I explain it? How could I put into words the storm that was happening inside me?
So I distracted myself constantly, trying to make the feelings go away. I smiled, because that’s what you do… right?
But what I didn’t know back then was that if I just stopped… if I just slowed down… things could begin to shift. But no one tells you that. People just watch on as you suffer in silence. 🥰
It’s no one’s fault. No one is to blame. Most people have never been taught how to navigate this.
If you’re reading this and you’ve been silent too — know you’re not alone. 💙
