most accounts tell you everything happens for a reason. i tell you what you’re actually running from. ask me anything. comment section is wide open. 🧡
ps: the bravest thing you can do today is ask for help. even from a cat. 🐾
My friend told me that he went back to his country of origin after 15 yrs, met one of his old gf’s since all that time, for some reason she thought they were still together and started doing strange behavior, they got her to see somebody and they gave her psychoanalysis and all that, they told her something about not being in reality or something like that, mental health is no less important than physical health
