Do you feel like your struggle is invisible? People look at you and think you've got it all together. But you don't feel that way at all. Some days you feel like you're barely holding it together. "High functioning" people keep going...because they feel they have to or because they have goals they want to achieve...it's just what they do. Outwardly, you look fine...maybe even better than fine. But on the inside maybe you feel like you're carrying a 100 pound weight around with you and are drowning or maybe you can't turn your thoughts off...you ruminate on every possible mistake you think you may have made. It's just exhausting.
