And in the meantime, we abandon the one who needs us most - ourselves. We find ourselves being slaves of our minds, suppressing our needs, avoiding our emotions, and not knowing how to create healthy boundaries that work in our favor. If you find yourself living in the past and struggling with your overthinking mind and lack of self-love, this is not a sign that you're broken.
