I’m a psychotherapist and here’s what I want you to know 💜 Nobody has it all together. Nobody! 💜 Social media isn’t real life. It’s full of show reels and none of the bloopers. 💜 Grief comes in many forms. We don’t just grieve the death of humans. We grieve the loss of our animals, friendship and romantic relationship breakups, pain and suffering in the world, work endings etc. 💜 You’re never too old. Timelines of where you should be or what you should have achieved aren’t real. 💜 Families are often complicated. Perfect ones rarely exist. 💜 Trauma can show up in lots of different ways. 💜 You’re not too sensitive and emotions are not a weakness. You can book a free consultation with me from the link in my bio. #therapist #therapistadvice #irishtherapist #onlinetherapy

It can happen in various relationships, be it romantic, friendship, or even professional connections. The ghoster simply vanishes, leaving the other person wondering what went wrong and why.⁣ ⁣ 👻Why do people ghost? ⁣ Ghosting can happen for a multitude of reasons, and it’s essential to remember that everyone’s situation is unique. ⁣ ⁣ Some people may ghost because they struggle with confrontation or fear of hurting others. ⁣ ⁣ Others may have lost interest or found themselves overwhelmed with personal challenges.

You have a heart of gold which can sometimes be really difficult and painful for you. It may even feel like that heart is breaking right now. I see you and I know that you care deeply. You are a sensitive soul. I know you’re doing your best every day to try help the world. But maybe you feel like your efforts are not enough. You have guilt for the moments of joy in your life. You find yourself overwhelmed with sadness, despair or anger. Your soul hurts witnessing one atrocity after another. You are in pain seeing constant violation of rights. This is because you care about people and about the world and you are passionate about justice and equality. It’s because you believe in kindness. It’s because you are not prepared to give up on what’s right. It's because you are a good person. I know it’s really hard, I get it. But you need to look after yourself too. Take breaks when you need them. Mind your beautiful heart. Do not give up on your joy, it is a protest in times of forced despair and uncertainty. If you would like support from someone who also cares deeply, you can book your FREE consultation, via the link in my bio. #joy #sensitivesouls #brokenheart #psychotherapist #irishpsychotherapist
