The trap of fixing

You do not need to be fixed. You are not a problem to be solved. You need to be loved, seen, cared for exactly as you are now.

Instead of desperately trying to feel "ok" by all the various coping strategies, apply love, presence and grace to not feeling ok. Essentially, be ok not feeling ok.

God's love and kindness leads to repentance, turning from patterns of self-condemnation, shame, people pleasing, worry and toxic guilt.
