Thank you for sending this out! I name-dropped your article on the intake with my new therapist, and also send it to people periodically because of how well it captures my own experience. Looking forward to whatever is next for you!
I sent your article to my therapist, as well as Yael Anohi's "Inside My Suicidal Mind" https://www.madinamerica.com/2022/06/inside-my-suicidal-mind/ , on the intake last year. Although I am rather older than you and I seem to live a more sedate life than yours, you have captured so much of my experience. I don't feel suicidal at the moment, but I often suspect I will kill myself someday — not anytime soon, but eventually. Many thanks and best wishes for your future endeavors!
"getting to know myself outside... the dreams that no longer align with our rapidly-evolving future" really resonates here, as a couple big shifts in my personal life and in the world have rocked what feels possible for my future and I'm really struggling to adjust.
Thanks for checking in, looking forward to hearing more, whatever that might look like.
saaaame! and while i feel like there's at least some resources out there on how to cope with specific personal life shifts, we have no frame of reference for how the world is developing and what it means for how the hell to imagine a future for ourselves, let alone build one.
Hi, Anna. Your newsletter evoked all kinds of feelings within me. We may be different versions of one song, and I don't know if that should be comforting or just downright saddening.
Thank you for sharing your experiences. I am sending you tons of light and healing energy. I wish I could say with so much confidence that it - WE - will be OK, but I don't know now. But, maybe some positivity and taking each day as it comes will help us through it all.
So happy to hear from you. Take care and look forward to reading whatever you do. Will always be grateful for your piece in The Outline. Was a huge help to me and have felt less alone since I read it. All the best!
Glad to be aboard with my favorite niece and glad to be a part of this network. Thank you for putting yourself out there on this very important subject!
I'm glad you're still here.
thank you! i am too
