In the midst of my identity shift, i ended up intentionally finding a therapist who lized in self and a kind of theripy called internal family systems. They believe themselves to be doing something that is meant to help you or protect you. I remember learning from some one who spent a lifetime studying emotions. They said that with these strong emotions, what we would sometimes even say, negative emotions of fear and anger. What's crazy is, i like to literally imagine that i, when i feel these emotions, i say in a hello fer and i embrace ittiit sounds unusual, but she literally says, i imagine hugging it.
When the unexpected happens, the world we once knew becomes unfamiliar. Every step can feel unsteady. We wonder how we will ever navigate our new reality.
But we can find hope knowing that these challenges often help us grow and lead us to become who we were meant to be.
