if you’re trying to avoid a feeling, you’re already feeling it.

you’re not dodging it — you’re layering it: the feeling, the panic, the impulsive coping mechanisms, the shame spiral after.

it’s not comfortable. but it’s true. and it ends. and it’s less next time. and every time after that.

i love you.
