Facebook Post

 I wrote this on Facebook today. 

I keep thinking: I don't need to share about all this stuff I've been going through. Just keep healing Wendi. You don't have to tell people about it. 

 

But that's never been the person I am. I truly WANT to help people. I want people to feel that they aren't crazy. When this happened to me, if it wouldn't have been for a series of divine interventions, I would have felt that I was "the only one."

 

And I could do that. I could keep pretending that I have it all together. That my chronic people-pleasing and busyness didn't cause me to collapse two years ago.

 

And then someone else messages me today feeling EXACTLY like I did. And I can help them not feel alone and not feel crazy.

 

If you are battling depression, anxiety, sleep issues, health issues (that they can't figure out a cause for) ... if you are using sleep, food, alcohol, drugs, scrolling, political (or other obsessions), busyness, people-pleasing, etc. you are doing it to SURVIVE. It's your drug of choice.

 

And that drug will eventually kill you. Or kill your kids. Or your relationships.

 

I've learned that I can't force this down anyone's throat. If you aren't ready to see it, you won't be able to. I had MANY friends try to tell me, and I had no idea what they were talking about. I had it altogether.

 

Until it all fell apart.

 

YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!!
