Holding It In Makes You Sick: The Hidden Cost

  Many of us grow up learning to “be strong,” “push through,” or “keep it together.” But what we rarely talk about is the weight that comes with carrying emotions we never release. Anger. Bitterness. Jealousy. Resentment. Unforgiveness. Hidden hurt. Silent disappointment. These emotions don’t stay neatly tucked away in the heart. The body feels them. The mind reacts to them. And the soul holds them like unspoken stories. The Body Keeps the Score When we bottle up hard emotions, the body shifts into a subtle form of stress response. Even if we smile on the outside, our inside is tightening, guarding, bracing. Over time, suppressed emotions can contribute to: Chronic tension Anxiety and irritability Fatigue and sleep issues High blood pressure Weakened immune system Digestive issues Emotional numbness or shutdown What stays unspoken becomes stored.

There Is Hope




I'm a person who was stuck in the depths of the abyss for over 10 years after being diagnosed with severe anxiety, chronic depression and post-traumatic stress disorder
(mainly because I was running from my purpose). 
I couldn't see at that time that things would change for me because it was all I knew. (the way I thought)
 I'm not saying I wasn't exposed to people doing well in life, but I wasn't familiar with what it took to get there. I didn't even know I was existing from a place of complex-trauma. 
Positive self talk via affirmations, quotes along with excessive self-care and much needed self love, is helping me tremendously. I cannot neglect to acknowledge having a relationship with the Most High God has given me new strength to overcome my challenges. 
I believe if you are reading this you can recover/heal/overcome too, you have to believe you can and do what is required to achieve it. 
Also remember to do what works for you, don't let someone make you feel bad for having boundaries, and don't hurt yourself trying to please someone else.
Stay Safe & Stay Aware
