Between Jobs

Three months after losing my job, "What do you do?" feels like a trap. My days blur together. Coffee. Job applications. Rejection emails. But yesterday, I went to the park and just sat. I realized: I'm still here. Still breathing. Still valuable. Maybe this isn't a gap in my resume. Maybe it's a gap in time to remember who I was before I became what I did.

The 3 AM Thought Spiral

3:47 AM. Wide awake. Again. My mind reviews every mistake. I used to fight these thoughts. Now, I do something different. I name them. "Okay, Anxiety. I see you. Thanks for trying to protect me.

The Weight of Expectations

I used to carry everyone's expectations like stones in my pockets. Each morning, I'd wake up heavier. Until one day, I couldn't get out of bed. That's when I learned: You can't pour from an empty cup. I started saying no. Small at first. Each "no" felt like dropping a stone. I'm still learning to walk lighter.
