A few things worth remembering

  • Comparison is the thief of joy. You’re comparing your inside to everyone else’s outside, and their outside has filters.
  • Thoughts aren’t facts. “Everyone else has it together” is a feeling, not a news report.
  • Asking for help is a skill. Start small: “Can I vent for five minutes?” or “Would you check in on me tonight?” Most people are glad to be asked.
  • Know your lines. It’s worth saving a support number in your phone before you need it.
