Tides and Ebbs

Moods, nausea and fear washes over me in tides and recedes just like that.

Like my therapist said, fear needs to be embraced. It's an emotion that serves one quite well if embraced properly. I try to slowly build a friendship with fear because something tells me she will be a companion for life.

Fear is a sneaky monster. She'll come in forms you least expect and disguise herself in many thoughts and keep you guessing whether it was really her. At this point it feels like I'm trying to be friends with a slimy slippery sneaky little monstrous bugger that I can't trust.

Doing my daily affirmations, writing here and eating the food that I cook for myself makes me feel grounded and loved.
