I just noticed that this little birdie looks like she's wearing a shower cap! I guess she's expecting Spring Showers! When I post here, I really try to just be real--to share the ups and the downs and hopefully help to **normalize**the fact that sometimes this journey with chronic anxiety is really hard, but also that, especially when I'm using the tools I have learned and share here, even those hard times can be managed. I never want to pretend that everything is light and flowers when it isn't. This is not to bring anyone down, or piddle on anyone's parade (as in my not-so-thrilled-about-mother's-day post) but because it's just real. The thing is, we're in this together, and that makes it just a little bit easier for all of us. Healing together is definitely a self-love thing. Love yourself and love others.

Love, Cheri
