The Great Void

The Great Void is something I’ve felt my whole life. I’m just beginning to feel safe enough to explore it. I felt it today.

I think we all feel it. This overwhelming feeling of loneliness, abandonment, & nothingness. It scares the shit out of me.

It shows up unexpectedly and I panic. I start to “run” from it. I try to fill it with alcohol, shopping, television, sex, food (specifically sugary foods), anything that will give me immediate relief.

I’m trying not to do that this time. So I sat down & did my breathwork. I cried a lot. And I sat with The Great Void for a few seconds.

It’s unnerving and scary but I think this is a step in the right direction.

I will let you know as I learn more about this unchartered territory.

I love you,

Abigail
