Greetings! The hardest thing to do in this world is to live in it. Reaching out for help can feel risky or daunting, especially as life changes around you. Days of seeing what feels "normal" change from moment to moment, experiencing losses and transitions (both welcome and unwelcome), and trying to figure out where you fit in your own story brings on all sorts of Big Emotions. You might feel anxious about navigating another hardship, or depressed at how things have changed. You may be feeling guilt or relief at a big life shift in an unexpected way. How do you process it all and keep going?
