Since starting counseling again last July, the theme that keeps coming up in my sessions is that I have lived my life feeling like I don’t matter. What I want, what I feel, my dreams, my emotions, my thoughts – they are not as important as the other people in my life. I am learning that this is a lie that I have believed for a long time, and I am leaning into changing and believing the truth – that I DO matter. So I wanted to share my thoughts that I wrote today.
I hope it encourages someone else who might be feeling like they don’t matter.
