Processing, Thoughts

How to Be Human Enough to… grieve the life you thought you had. Part 1.

In a deeply personal reflection, the author shares her journey of processing grief related to her unrecognised needs.
Misunderstood since childhood, she navigates the aftermath of refusing to trust her body’s signals, resulting in a life marred by self-blame, exhaustive efforts to follow societal rules, and overwhelming challenges with motherhood and self-care. Her struggles include coping with autoimmune disease, vocal cord damage, and past academic and functional hardships due to a lack of support and awareness—haunting her decades later.
