People Give A Shit About Me Now
And It Gets Overwhelming
I know how bad it makes me sound.
But it’s true.
So hear me out.
I’ve Been Alone Most of My Life
Not literally, but emotionally, I’d been on my own for most of my life.
Most people didn’t give a shit about me. And the ones who often had a hard time showing it, leading to me unconsciously closing myself off to others.
Finding Those Who Give a Shit
For a long time, I was convinced I would never find that second family so many find through their friends. Like the friend groups on TV, quirky and loyal to each other.
There were a couple of false starts within the last few years, which hurt a lot because I do feel things deeply, but I think I’ve finally found that second family.
And I’ve worked hard to open myself up.
Now I Have People Who Care
As someone who was and still is used to going through emotional and other things alone, having people around can sometimes be overwhelming.
And I don’t like admitting it. Not even to you guys. It makes me feel like a shitty person at times, but I know it’s all the trauma talking.
Which is why I’m sharing it with you.
You’re Not Alone
