You're tired of feeling brokenhearted from stuff that happened when you were younger. You feel like you need to keep it together, hold it in, be tough, and brave, and not allow this stuff to bother you anymore, but it keeps coming up. The nightmare doesn't stop when you are awake, and you constantly feel anxious, worried, and scared. It feels like no matter what you do, you’re not good enough like you won’t measure up. Constantly feeling unsafe and scared in your body, even when you know you're safe. You just want to feel better. 

It affects all of your relationships. You don’t feel understood by those around you and at times you feel scared that those in your life will get tired of you constantly feeling anxious and depressed and will give up on you. You don’t know why you feel this way, you just do.
