💡 I had an a-ha moment this past month. And it has me shooketh.
It’s all grief. Emotional eating that isn't about hunger, spending that makes a hard day survivable, or reaching for people in ways that don't leave you less alone.
When a loss, any loss, goes unacknowledged, the grief still has to go somewhere. Because grief follows how much something mattered, be it a person, a pet, a career or your place in the universe.
→ A long-term relationship that ended, even one that needed to
→ A family member you're estranged from
→ A career or role you built a whole self around
→ A body that works differently than it used to
→ A future you'd already started living toward
-> A world that no longer feels safe
We have a script for death: flowers, a service, a few days off work, a text on the anniversary. Most other losses arrive with none of that.
I’m excited to start building that bridge.
