Damn... literally YEARS of therapy and TWO sentences that you wrote were like a nuclear eruption in my brain.

I have ghosted myself too many times to count. It's time for me to show up for me.

Also realizing that I am a ghost, married to a ghost... fuck. Thank you for the inspiration...

THIS!!! I AM CRYING! This is me! Never believed in therapy…many reasons why..but THIS RIGHT HERE 😢😢My nervous system wrote a rule book: if I do not get too close, nothing can leave. If I do not finish, it cannot be judged. If I vanish first, I cannot be abandoned. You can’t hurt me if I can hurt you first.

This is why we keep one foot in and one foot out. Self-protection from whatever your wiring, trauma stems from.
