07.01.2022 A random #soliloquy of private thoughts, the type not often shared. Does one of them match the experience of someone you love? Or ring a bell inside you? If so,... whichever thought it is... you are not alone. Just know you are in a global village and your story is a #human one. More than a third of the planet's population is under some form of restriction. The #duality being experienced today in between and within people is surreal. Some people are enjoying these unique times in the safety of their homes, experiencing intimacy or peace. Some people are having both the worst days of their lives along with something else they’ve badly needed, all at the same time. Some people started out great but then crashed and burned as isolation wore on and adrenals became fatigued. Some people are living in close confines with others who feel like they’re falling, regressing in behaviour, floundering in inertia, withdrawing from medications, losing their livelihoods, or needing urgent therapeutic support. And many have simply been struggling. In amongst the medley of experiences, it’s become hard for them to communicate the emotional, mental, social and physical strain that has arrived with the extreme turn of events, a communicative exile that generates even more intense strain. These are difficult times for many. Life may never again be just how it was. It’s ok to grieve the loss, feel confusion, or to exist in unexplainable emotional terrain. Statistics show that the struggle is real and widespread. Mental health services are being overrun; domestic violence reports are surging; low and high needs specialists are encountering trauma and PTSD; educators are seeing their most vulnerable fall through the cracks; pharmacies are running out of antidepressants and vital medications; and many economies are facing their biggest economic crisis since the Great Depression. Different realities are playing out across the spectrums of homes and countries each a looking-glass of luck and happenstance as the cookies continue to crumble differently in every community and every home. There is such a wide and endless array of contributing factors Some people have gardens; some need support services; some have savings; some are essential workers; some have lost loved ones; some are tech literate; some are single parents; some have kind bosses; some live in units; some have no baby formula; some have maladaptive partners; some have autoimmune conditions; some are seasoned home schoolers; some are sheltering alone; some are exposed to daily death or grief; some need the gym for anger management; some have inflexible work hours; some are older or high risk; some grow their own food; some sacrifice unnoticed; some have great internet; some are easing restrictions; some are barely holding their worlds together. One thing for sure is that everyone is in a different situation and having their own #unique experience. And whatever you’re experiencing, it is valid. Don’t feel guilty if you’re loving life (spread that love around)! But also don’t feel dysfunctional or alone if you’re not. The walls are not closing in on you alone. Millions of other people are with you, alone but #together. Times like these can open up the craters in our minds, in our lives, and in between each other when really, this is a time when we all need to pull together. That all starts with recognition of subjective experiences and empathy for all. And acceptance. It’s ok to feel how you feel. #neurochild #selfcare #villagelife #writers
