This one is hard, but worth it. I listened to a video in 2021 (3rd clip) where I first began recording my videos about mental health, faith, education, and abuse. If I could go back and hug that girl I would. I looked over the cycles that took a toll on me in every way possible. The bags, the inflammation, the hair loss/gain, the smile, the weight loss/gain, the darkness that clouded me was so physically visible. I immersed myself in my passions to hold onto whatever light I had left in each season. If you would have asked me a month ago if I’d be sharing this, my answer would have been not yet because I wanted to achieve complete success in life. However, this is it. This is me. This God’s hand and grace on my life. This is how resilient I am. This is how unfraid and unashamed I am of my 20’s. This is me beautifully shattered by all the different parts and roles that I’ve hung onto this far. This is me not taking life for granted and finishing what I started so long ago. If you’ve followed my story privately and joined me here, thank you again for being here ❤️ #recovery #abuse #narcissist #survivor #singlemom #domesticabuseawareness #sexualassault #healing #fyp #growth #therapy #mentalhealth #mom #free #selflove #faith #christian #stopabuse #nomorehiding
