Hi Tara and everyone. I'm Amber. I'm currently listening through buy yourself the fucking lilies for the 2nd time. I'm a registered nurse who (as of yesterday) apparently developed a personality disorder due to the trauma of my childhood🙃 I've been struggling for a long time and I thought it was all in my head and I was crazy. I also worked ICU for 6 Years including during covid. I was forced to leave a job I loved bc I could
get my shit together. I couldn't stop myself from bawling at any turn. I'm still in the thick of my rock bottom and I want you to know that you're book and this platform have helped save my life. Just this past week I have had suicidal thoughts but it's like Lady God needed me to read this substack today. About reminding me that I'm worthy because I am human and I deserve all the kindness and compassion I give everyone else. Thank you for what you do. Thank you for reminding me I'm not alone. With all my love and appreciation💜
Wow, Amber. I am so sorry to hear what you've been through and grateful AF that our paths have crossed. I know how hard a rock bottom is - truly I do - and...I know that on the other side life is SO much better. I used to think all of my problems and dealing with myself would overwhelm me. It turns out what was overwhelming was the NOT dealing. Lady God loves you and so do I. Thrilled you are here.
I wish I could share a photo here. I shared my last comment with my therapist. Tara, similar like you, I suffered a childhood of psychological trauma. It wasn’t until I read you first book that had got me thinking why I felt the way I did. I never even thought twice about my childhood prior. ❤️ Im so grateful for you and your writing.
