I find it completely wild how many of us could have written this story word for word.

Thank you, Jesse, for putting the words on paper. I am so very, very tired of the hamsterwheel of ruminating on the shame and guilt. Focusing on self-talk to get out of the spiral to run up the side of the wheel to 'ok-ness' only to lose your footing and back into the loop again. I would do anything for contentment.

P.S. Whenever I write my feelings and experiences in words, it is such a downer! I swear, I enjoy my life, and I laugh a lot, but the internal monologue thing is a royal pain in the ass! Lol!!

P.S.S. I was thinking today how much I am looking forward to your app. I can't believe how often I forget to check in with people. Nice one, coming up with this idea is awesome!
