Dear Self, With Love
Hi, my name is Sophie (a lot of people call me Soph). I'm 28 years old and I'm from the UK. I've made this blog as I go on a journey of healing and self-discovery following a car accident in December 2019. Since the accident, I have struggled with my mental health and was eventually diagnosed with PTSD and depression. At the end of January 2021, I found myself in a very dark place. I decided to reach out for help because I wanted to feel better. I wanted to heal and fall in love with living again. In September 2021, my ex-boyfriend and I ended our long-term relationship. As I talk more to friends and my counsellor about the relationship, I'm realising that the relationship had became quite controlling and toxic. It's hard to admit even to myself that he was not the person I thought he was, and I was in a relationship that had become financially, emotionally and, at times, sexually abusive. I'm learning to heal and grow through my mental health problems and through this bad chapter. I am hopeful that better days will continue to come and I will fall in love with myself and life again. Self love and self care haven't come easily to me, but I'm making sure I put myself first and treat myself gently. This blog is my space to continue on this journey of self-discovery, self-love and healing. Some of the things I may post about include my experience with mental health, self-love and self-care ideas, inspirational or motivational quotes that mean something to me and pictures of things I enjoy like my cooking/baking or nature photography.

one thing i need to start living by is “become the thing that you want” if i want friends who throw themed parties maybe i should start throwing those parties. if i want someone who writes me love letters maybe i should start writing letters for the people i love. if i want to hang out at museums and pretty cafes maybe i should invite my friends to these places. and maybe even then i won’t find the kind of people i want to be around. but then i would have become the exact person i want to be around. and maybe that’s good enough.

This is your sign to stop for a moment and hug yourself, and remind yourself that your feelings and needs were valid even when somebody else didn't acknowledged them. You did a great job in making it through it all, despite the pain. And you can keep going. It's gonna be better, things will change.
