“♥ Choosing to be my authentic self; not reshaping myself to fit someone else’s standard, whether that’s my physical appearance or behavior.
♥ Only embracing relationships where I am respected and accepted for who I am.
♥ Being honest with myself and my loved ones about my insecurities and challenges; owning it.
♥ Showing the kindness and understanding to myself that I would show a friend.
♥ Reframing: looking at past events and choices with understanding and compassion and without judgment.”
Kate Allan
“When you have anxiety or depression, you can feel deeply alone. You can feel like you’re the only person on the planet who’s struggling with weird worries (which won’t go away), who can’t go grocery shopping without getting sweaty and panicked, who fears everything.
Everything.
You can feel like you’re the only person on the planet who has an unrelenting, persistent kind of pain, who feels hollow, who feels like the teeniest tiniest task takes all you have and you don’t really have much.
And you hate yourself for it. For all of it. You think you’re a loser and a weakling.
You’re convinced of it. You think there’s something inherently wrong with you. And all you yearn for is to be “normal.”
When we feel this way, one of the greatest gifts we can receive is knowing that there’s someone out there walking a similar path, someone who understands the sorrow, the struggles, the symptoms, the hardships. Someone we can relate to, someone who shares their story, with vulnerability and without filters.”

You can feel like you’re the only person on the planet who has an unrelenting, persistent kind of pain, who feels hollow, who feels like the teeniest tiniest task takes all you have—and you don’t really have much.
And you hate yourself for it. For all of it. You think you’re a loser and a weakling.
You’re convinced of it. You think there’s something inherently wrong with you. And
all you yearn for is to be “normal.”
