You can begin to use your body to help you heal.

“

I take it day by day.

“

Two years on from trauma and I’ve still not really accepted that it happened. I don’t accept the way it happened or why, and I think of the what ifs all the time. But I’m trying to now.

“

It’s a reminder that it’s not too late — You can still reclaim the damaged parts of yourself.

“

Revealing your truth is your path to healing. You will stumble along the way, but you will walk upright after you say it. Then, move forward. 

“

Remember when you promised that you were just taking a break and that you still love me?

“

When you love someone, you don’t act like they are being ridiculous when they shut down and get quiet because you feel like you didn’t even do anything. 

“

Because, of course, there are times when it does all feel like it is falling apart. 

“

Everything changes naturally, but even more so after a traumatic experience.

“

I don’t have names for what happened to me, just the scars that no one can see except for me.
