I wish I would have found my courage earlier. Every change I have ever made — beginning relationships and ending them, moving, again and again, altering and adjusting my work-life so that I had time and space for what I actually cared about, who I spent time with and didn’t, what habits and coping mechanisms I allowed into my life and then when I had to draw a line in the sand — it never came out of nowhere.

I wish I had wasted less time. For anyone who has not yet been introduced to you and your work, what would you want them to know about both yourself and your writing?

The things I wish I could take with me from Granny and Grandpa’s are the feelings. The warmth. The sense of safety. The inkling everything was going to be okay. That I was okay, too. Because as someone who struggled with mental health for as long as I can remember, I have always had the belief that I am difficult to love. And at 31, I still feel this way most days. Granny and Grandpa never made me feel that way, though. Even when I was at my most unwell, Granny and Grandpa would welcome me into their home on Ivanhoe. I spent a lot of time there during the summer before and after senior year of high school. Exactly what it sounds like. President Kris. Vice President Khloe.

Stop swiping through dating apps because you feel like you need to find someone RIGHT NOW or you never will. Think about it like this: Your favorite songs always end. The credits of your favorite movie will always roll. This book you’re holding in your hands will, too, come to a close. Would you stop listening to music, would you stop watch- ing movies, would you stop reading books just because they end? Shouldn’t we treat people the same?

Some people are only meant to be loved for a little while, and that’s okay.

These are all questions you can ask yourself and these will hopefully start giving you the right answers, or at least lead you to the right questions. 5. Write down five things you like about yourself. If you have RSD, you most likely also have low self-esteem as well. Your self-trust is basically non-existent. You struggle to see your worth and what you bring to the table because you are held hostage by memories or current experiences of rejection and loss. Your self-esteem is entirely dependent on what other people think about you. And when what they think is negative, you’re utterly devastated. 3. You’re absolutely terrified of failure.
