Meowy Christmas

Obligatory Merry Chrysler

I just wanted to capture this moment tbh. I feel so full, so grateful.

This time last year I was being discharged from a hospital stay. I was checked in bc my mental was so unstable. I was all over the place & drowning in sadness & unpaid rent. I still can’t believe I survived last year (2023) bc the depression was that grueling on me.

Today is the complete opposite. I’m not sad. I’m not super stressed. I am actually surrounded by family & people I love who love me back.

My best friend FT me this morning so I could say hi to her son, my sweet nephew. On this day last year, this same best friend picked me up from the hospital when I was discharged. It was her who suggested I contact my therapist regarding the way I was feeling & it was my therapist who called the ambulance to come get me. I’m so grateful for my support system. I love my best friend so much & words can’t explain how much I’ve appreciated her support. She has carried me through without even trying. I hope my love to her is reciprocal.

Right now, I’m sitting on the other end of the couch as the love of my life. We are both on our phones in silence. But I couldn’t want for anything else. Our half lit tree is up, the house is mostly clean & we have time to watch a few movies today. I am in love & surrounded by love. I am so grateful.

Thank you.
