Dear Abbey

Todayyyy we first talk about my dubs and L's for the week then we dive into the main subject RELATIONSHIP ANXIETY. I suffered with this and still do from time to time. I speak about a couple ways it showed up for me and what I learned about myself and how to reframe my mindset when it came to relationships.

I talk about how irrational and exhausting OCD can be and how much it lies to you (even if it feels like a protector). I also answer a Dear Abbey question regarding how to not shame yourself after an anxiety attack.
