282. Promise to Yourself: Write about a promise you want to make to yourself and keep.
I am very good at hiding my feelings and problems and although this has served me positively at times throughout my life, this has also bitten me in the ass. In managing my life, I need to be less secretive about my internal turmoil and share it before it eats me alive. I promise myself that as I identify my depression and anxiety, I will share with my friends and DH2 even if I don’t understand why I’m feeling what I’m feeling. I just need to describe my experience and specify that I’m not asking for a solution (DH2 likes to solve problems and then refer to the “it’s not about the nail” skit.)
