I regressed this morning and fell back to a weathered coping mechanism. I went back to half my age and wished I could relive those years while my shame is that I could never rewind time. I cried man. Sometimes the pain and absence is too much. 🌷
Sven, thank you for your vulnerability. It’s so easy to feel like we can never go back, to wish for a time when things were simpler, or to feel trapped by the weight of our past. But I want you to remember that those tears? They’re not signs of weakness—they’re signs of your humanity. The pain you feel is real, but so is your strength. You can break free from the cycle, and even when it feels like a setback, it’s just part of the journey. You’re not alone in this. My episode tomorrow is about my having a recent moment of regression myself. Keep showing up, keep loving yourself through it, and remember: healing isn’t linear, but it is possible. Stay connected.
