I feel this so deeply Allison. Every single word.

Your choices, in words, to describe anything is raw and perfect.

I see you.

So I’m not sure I follow logically everything in this piece, but I’ve just read it again and I think what resonates with me is how it makes me feel. It feels to me like the underside of the wave, a place we are not supposed to show and that I used to frequently and sometimes still try and talk myself out of out of sometimes.

Thank you, Amy. I’m glad you were open to feeling instead of logic. I’m just trying to keep my sanity intact right now to be honest. I like that: underside of the wave.

I don’t have the words but you do! I’m not totally sure it was all of what you were saying but that captures the emotions of a day in recovery. Really awesome Allison.

Hey JB, I'm just sincerely grateful you spent time here with me and my words. I am not always sure I know what to say either, but I don't believe we should wait til we have everything sorted, you know? Or we will never say anything. Thank you again so much.
