I’ve never been the kind of person that was super into feelings. I pretty much wrote them off as a sign of weakness. No reason to ever let your guard down. No reason to show anyone that you are anything less than a strong and productive person. Then all of this IF stuff happened. For […]
I have been feeling really anxious the last few days – not sleeping well, feeling distracted, etc. I’m not sure why exactly.
