It’s okay to need your safe person.
“Why do you always have to bring your husband?”
“You should really start doing things by yourself.”
“You just need to grow up and start doing things yourself.”
My husband is my safe place
He is the only person that can make me feel safe when I’m starting to have an anxiety or panic attack.
He has driven me to the hospital at 3/4 am when the panic attacks got so bad I literally thought I was dying.
He is the one who rubs my back when I am sitting in a cold shower.
He’s the one who gives me tight hugs to help calm my nerves.
He’s the one who gives me tight hugs to help calm my nerves.
He’s the one who takes me to my therapy appointments and waits outside for me while I get the help I need.
He knows my triggers and he knows when my anxiety or depression is getting bad.
He is the one that when my depression gets bad he helps me take care of myself.
He is the one who takes nightly walks with me because the cool fresh air helps clear my mind.
He is the one who understands and doesn’t make me feel bad for my mental health struggles.
He makes me feel secure. He is my safe place and I will not apologize for needing him to be okay especially in stressful situations. He’s my person and I will do what I need to do to be okay.
If you have or need a support system don’t feel bad about it. Do what you need to do💛
