2·10 days agowhoa i literally live here and i didn’t even know we had $10,000 notes
i was on a leave of absence from college for a year and i focused on therapy, rest and hobbies - basically things i couldn’t do while i was studying. i tried to reduce my stress levels as much as possible, get good sleep, and also focused on learning how to cope with stress in therapy and eventually i felt i’d gotten to a good enough place where i could go back to school. so i completed a semester but then had to take another leave of absence because of health problems (got diagnosed with a connective tissue disorder and autoimmune disease) and that’s where we are now 🥲
it was something i was thinking about for a while but because my family disapproved i tried to hold it out as long as i could. one day i just had a panic attack after an exam and broke down. that’s when i realised i needed to stop and repair myself or my body would just forcefully schedule one for me haha.
don’t feel bad about having to do this, it’s important and necessary for your health and wellbeing. i hope your leave is restful and healing!
i struggle with this so much that my partner says i’m the epitome of “out of sight, out of mind” if something isn’t within my visible range i literally forget it exists 😔
