When a service provider comes to my house, they're often compelled to tell me their life story... unprompted.
I've heard incredibly personal stories including divorce, child custody fights, family members with mental health challenges, eating disorders, financial struggles, and child loss.
As a service call is usually not planned far in advance, it is often a disruption to my day but I patiently sit and listen.
Sometimes all we want to do is to feel heard.
.. And sometimes it's easier to talk to a stranger than it is someone close to you.
To me, this is worth making time for.
With that said, if you're feeling lots of feelings and you need someone to share it with, please send me a message. I'm not a therapist and my only advice (if you want it) is based on my own experience, but I have personally experienced everything I mentioned above and I can relate.
There were many times in my life I felt like I haven't been "heard" and I've been misunderstood, and I know I'm not alone in this.
So, seriously. You're not alone and if you feel like you are, I've got you.
