You get to choose when to face it. Deciding not now, to stay safe today, is a valid choice, not failure.

Timing is yours. Pausing the hard work to protect yourself is part of the work, not a retreat from it.

A minuteFace it gentlyTrauma informedQur’an 2:286

Avoiding forever keeps the fear alive; flooding yourself re-wounds. Small, chosen doses are how it loses its grip.
