You want to be recognized, but do you realize that true recognition comes from within?

You want to be admired, but are you sacrificing your authenticity for admiration?

You want to be loved, but is seeking love from others preventing you from loving yourself?

You want to be praised, but does external praise truly fulfil your inner needs?

You want to be accepted, but are you accepting yourself fully and unconditionally?

You want to be validated, but have you considered validating your own worth?

You want to avoid criticism, but is the fear of criticism holding you back from expressing your true self?

You want to impress others, but at what point does impressing others overshadow your own happiness?

You want to fit in, but is fitting in worth losing the uniqueness that makes you who you are?

Remember: 

You are worthy. 

You are enough.

When the Weight Starts To Feel Too Heavy

Hey.... I've been sitting here staring at this blank screen for longer than I want to admit. It's funny - well, not funny - but strange, how I can feel so full of thoughts and yet have no idea how to begin putting any of them into words. My mind feels like a room filled with laundry piles I keep meaning to fold, but every time I turn around, more clothes are thrown aside. Eventually you stop trying to organize them, and you just sit in the middle of the mess, hoping no one opens the door.  That's kind of where I'm at right now.  Sitting in the middle of the mess.  Tired. Overwhelmed. A little bit numb. and very, very human.  The truth is... Life has been really rough lately. I mean the kind of rough that makes you wake up already exhausted, like you ran a marathon in your sleep.  The kind where your chest feels tight for no clear reason, and every day you're just trying to convince yourself you're fine enough to function. I've been moving on autopilot - resp...

You Are Not Too Much — You’re Carrying A Lot

If you’re reading this, I want you to pause for just a moment. Unclench your jaw. Drop your shoulders. Take one slow breath in—and let it out gently. You don’t need to be strong here. I know how easy it is to believe you’re “too much.” Too emotional. Too sensitive. Too intense. Too broken. Too complicated. Especially if you’ve spent your life being misunderstood, dismissed, or told that your pain makes other people uncomfortable. But I need you to hear this clearly: You are not too much. You are someone who has been through a lot. There is a difference. When you’ve lived through trauma, your nervous system learns to protect you in ways that don’t always look pretty. When you live with mental illness, your brain processes the world differently—not wrong, just differently. When you’ve had to survive instead of being cared for, your reactions make sense, even if others don’t understand them yet. Nothing about that makes you unlovable. Healing is not a straight line.

Borderline Is Loving Like a Wound and Being Punished For Bleeding

Living with Borderline Personality Disorder feels like being born without skin. Everything touches you too hard. Everything hurts deeper than it should. Everything matters more than you want it to. And then people look at you and ask why you’re “so dramatic,” why you “overreact,” why you “can’t just calm down.” As if you wouldn’t give anything to feel less. BPD isn’t a personality flaw. It’s not being manipulative. It’s not being toxic for fun. It’s not attention-seeking. It’s a nervous system that learned, very early on, that love is unstable and abandonment is inevitable. It’s what happens when attachment and trauma collide and set up permanent residence in your chest. It’s loving like your life depends on it—because somewhere deep inside, it always has. People love to describe BPD from the outside. Mood swings. Fear of abandonment. Intense relationships. Impulsivity. Emotional dysregulation. Cool. Clinical. Neat. That tells you absolutely nothing about what it’s li...
