What do you do when you are stuck? When you are, as the proverbia expression goes, between a rock and a hard place?

Maybe it’s more of a chicken and egg thing? I don’t know. If our former decisions cause our current reality but our decisions have been made of wounds that can’t heal without a new reality, what then? How do we change?

If you are so sick that you can’t heal without help but the only help available to you is also harmful to you, what do you do?

If healing requires being in a safe environment, free from trauma but you aren’t physically capable of living on your own until you heal and the environment you are currently in and the only other option you can see are filled with trauma, what then?

I do not want this blog to be a negative space and I appologize for it being so thus far. I would like this to be a place of hope but I’m really struggling right now. This space is currently a reflection of that.

I’m not meaning to come across as hopeless because I’m truth I’m not. I have faith and hope but the truth also holds a lot of darkness. I don’t believe we are served by trying to stay only in the light when there are shadows that are need of exploration. I think it’s necessary to explore these shadows publicly. How else do we create awareness? How else do create change?

Please bare with me while I struggle.
