Wow, so good. And so relatable. I hope that session with your therapist ended with a big weight being lifted ❤️🩹
I mostly feel grief now too and I try to indulge my inner kid on the regular, especially when I’m feeling sad about all the things she missed out on/lost sleep over (watching grease at a sleepover, reading teen magazine at a friends house)… have you heard Maddie Zahm’s song “you might not like her”?? If not, you’ll want some tissues!
Yes! A friend who is very familiar with my journey sent me link to the music video when it came out. 😭😭😭 And same - listening to music with swears and watching Practical Magic at Halloween has been so healing. Cheers to having a second adolescence! It’s not always easy, but it sure can be fun.
Ashley, I'm so grateful for you and your big emotions and your current understanding that younger you was 💯 right about the unfair stupid rules and you recovering your joy! I'm very glad you were born and live on this planet in my lifetime! 🎉💕🔥
