The Grief Sessions

I mean, I think this’ll be stereotypical, but patience.

Just be patient with the people that you love and know that they're probably not going to be that same person that you knew before. And so don't expect that same person, you know, when you're trying to get through the hardest shit and you're trying to get back to like, whatever status quo was before, whatever your family dynamic was before, just know when it's something like that, that it's never going to go back. And it doesn't mean that you won't have a great relationship. You know, it doesn't mean that you won't find like, peace again, but things aren't going to look at the same that they did before. And so don't be looking for it. You know, just try to be present and in the moment. But also not being don't be afraid to set up your own boundaries, you know, and enforce those boundaries because, you know, when you just continuously sacrifice yourself, you know, for everyone else's emotions, you end up letting all this crazy shit bottle up.​​​​
