Thank you so much for sharing this Krista! Thank you for being so brave, honest, and authentic. I know it couldn’t have been easy to write, and even harder to be so vulnerable and share it. The fact that you did just speaks to your tremendous courage and desire to help others. As someone that has felt similarly for a myriad of different reasons in my life multiple times I can empathize. Even though I don’t currently feel like that, and I wish you never had to experience feeling like that either, it also brought me a bit of comfort and made me feel a bit less othered to know that someone else understands what it’s like to feel like that. So thank you for that as well, and I hope that you know you’re not alone either, as isolating as these experiences can feel. I also think that sharing this makes you a tremendous wellness writer. I would ALWAYS rather take wellness advice and inspiration from someone that has actually experienced difficulties and come out the other side than from someone that has never really faced adversity. Especially when they’re so open and honest about their lived experiences. I’m so glad and grateful that you’re here and telling your story. Sorry for the novel. 😅
