Month: April 2020

It all made sense why about three days a month I genuinely believe everyone is talking badly about me, that no one likes me, or that I am annoying everyone

It’s also to blame for sometimes being sure the friends I have only pretend to be my friends. I am so hard on myself and legitimately think I cannot do anything right, my irritability would add to that thinking, so I would get irritated and on-edge. Unfortunately, sometimes it goes deeper than irritability and lack of confidence, this is when my most intense and anxious thoughts are constant. It is when I imagine my life without the people I love or I ask the horrific question: would I be missed if I was gone?

[DearDamsels knows that] it’s all too common for women to feel like their voices aren’t worth anything, so we always want to offer opportunities for women to have their voices heard and their stories told — it’s why we describe DD as your words, your stories, your collective
