Today marks 1 year of our breakup and I'm completely fine. I've moved on, being kind to people and managing studies at the same time. It was crazy how love could fade so fast for her but in proportion to how fast my life was gonna slip out of my hand if I was trying to get back to her, it was nothing.

Childhood trauma is so insidious because you don't even know what they are and usually need the help of a therapist to help you figure what they are. Then once you've identified them, which can take a while, it takes even more time to work through them.

Being a healthy human being is hard work. But if you want healthy, fulfilling relationships this is the work that you have to do.

Otherwise I'm gonna die alone or have unhealthy, unfulfilling relationships.

Little by little we'll get there.

(For the record, we all have childhood trauma whether our parents did it intentionally or not. It's our job to work them out.)

Today is exactly a year since I was hospitalised for a mental breakdown, I’ve come a long way since then. I moved out, went to university, fixed my friendships and relationship. Progress is slow, and the past still hurts sometimes but I’m getting there!
