The quiet pressure.
Updated: Jul 30

Sometimes the hardest things to carry are the emotions that no one else can see. It’s the overthinking at night that keeps you from sleeping, the pressure to be perfect, the constant feeling that you’re not doing enough or falling behind even when you’re already trying your best. From the outside everything might look fine, but how it feels on the inside for you can be very neve racking and scary.
But the truth is youre not alone, a lot of people are carrying that exact same quiet weight and feeling. You’re not the only one who feels overwhelmed or unsure, at any given moment hundereds of people are feeling the exact same things that you are. And even though it might feel easier to keep it all in, opening upn to others even just a little can make that weight feel lighter and make you realize that you're not alone in what you're feeling.
You don’t have to have the perfect words to descibe how you're feeling in that moment. Just starting with admiting that you've been feeling off to someone is enough. Your feelings are real, and they deserve to be heard. You don’t have to carry everything by yourself by letting these emotions out you might even find someone whos feeling the exact same way that very moment.
