Your Body Just Knows...

And if you don't listen, it'll show you

On July 30th, I found myself gripped by sadness. I cried most of the day. Every now and then, since leaving my mentally and emotionally abusive ex, I of course, have had days like that. Processing and healing takes time. But I’d been doing OK. This day though, seemed weird.

It was like a cloak of heaviness. I couldn’t pin it down to any one particular thing. But I accepted it as just another wave of dealing with the emotions that come with a situation like that.

The next day the cloak was still there, and the day after, and the day after that. I couldn’t shift it and it was feeling all encompassing.
