I Am Enough
Just the way I am
I always knew what mental health struggles were.
After all, I’d experienced immense trauma and heartbreak from a very young age.
But in 2023, I saw that I hadn’t even seen the tip of the iceberg yet.
A traumatic event in my personal life in October 2022 made me start regular therapy.
Initially, I felt good. I felt heard. I felt better and lighter.
Then, I discovered all that lay under the surface, in between crevices that my mind had managed to cover all these years, as a form of self-preservation.
My Demons
- Depression
- Loneliness
- High GAD
- Moderate ADHD
- Disassociation
- Complex PTSD
These are just some of the things that I discovered within me.
Therapy forces you to look inside.
Over many years of reading, writing, and practising self-improvement, I have been hammering at the same issues over and over again.
How to be happy? How to be healthy? How to succeed in my chosen field? How to make the best out of this life?
