We were talking about this recently in a thread over on E Jean Carroll's newsletter. When I have really been in crisis in my life, submitting to the feeling of falling (apart) rather than putting on a "brave face" and trying to pretend it wasn't happening was always the best thing to do. It didn't make the crisis smaller but I do think it made the recovery shorter.
Completely agree! Glad this spoke to another discussion you've been having. Sometimes the longer we try to hold everything together, the worse we fall apart!

One cannot rise without falling.
Absolutely! Thanks for reading!
