Repeat after me:

It is okay to eat.

It is okay to eat.

It is okay to eat.

It is okay to eat.

It is okay to eat.

Repeat it out loud or in your head, over and over, as many times as you need to. Even if it’s something small, give yourself permission.

so how long am I going to feel like this for?

[winginit]

maybe it’s better to be numb? probably safer, less exhausting, might not completely ruin my life by having episodes at everything

[winginit]

more and more episodes

feel like I’m losing control

want someone to come and scoop me out of the darkness

I sit with my grief. I mother it. I hold its small, hot hand. I don’t say, shhh. I don’t say, it's okay. I wait until it is done having feelings. Then we stand and we go wash the dishes.
