I'm Struggling and I Need Somewhere to Say It, so I'm Saying It Here

I'm having a very difficult and very painful time. I feel very low and very anxious. I'm struggling and it's got to be one of the loneliest feelings in the world. I'm wracked with guilt and shame. But most of all, loneliness.

Silent scream into an earless void. Unable to share that in most places for lots of reasons I've written about many times before.

Is there anything more isolating (more hidden?) than bleak-feeling days like these? Answers on a stamped self-addressed postcard please.

These feelings will lift, I suppose. It's just a matter of when, not if.

My big heart that I turned inside out for the millionth time...and why? Because my need for connection is bigger than my propensity for shame.

Trying not to hate on myself for core parts of who I am and how I let these go out into the world.

Thinking of all my readers and sending you all my kindest wishes.
