Thank you for writing this. I try writing and it helps me. I read self help books because I want to get over the fear or insecurity ASAP. I don’t want it to take its time I want a one click delete button and I get desperate. I plan out my life with exercise, meditation, books, movies, cooking, writing and recently have added sleeping. I keep questioning am I doing this for myself or so that I have no time to think about how others might leave me someday.

I can definitely relate to what you're talking about, Indu. Over these last few months I have realized the many unhealthy habits that I have had which have spilled over to not only my relationships with others but also myself. Thank you for sharing <3

I numb myself with food most of the time, and it depends on how bad I feel. So I compensate the bad feeling with food bcz it gives me the ultimate joy. But now with therapy, I'm realising that eating my fav food is not working. I need to sit/reflect/journal about the feeling and my therapist said I need to truly accept it. And I've started doing that, it feels relieving.
