Why I've been missing
I've been having trouble writing recently. This is partly because end of term has been slamming me. This course is intense, and we had a lot to do in the run up to the end of term. There's placement to work on, worrying about getting my hours and work in, as well as keeping on top of life.
That's not the only reason though.
A bigger reason is that I feel…not like a fraud, but that I'm at a point in my healing and work on myself that feels very vulnerable in many different ways.
I'm working on my anxiety. I'm aware that my anxiety is a foundational part of my identity at this point, but in a way that's causing issues. I'm actively looking for things to be anxious about which is exhausting and stopping me from enjoying my achievements or other things in my life.
