Attachment Weaponisation: The Bond Was Never an Accident

Attachment Weaponisation: The Bond Was Never an Accident I never noticed the closeness being built. I just assumed it was love, and assumed what I owed because of it, without either of us ever saying it out loud.

Self-care doesn’t have to be fancy or complicated. Sometimes it’s just staying home, drinking another cup of tea you don’t really need, and laughing at your own jokes. That’s medicine. That’s therapy. That’s peace.

Love yourself like it’s rocket science — because honestly, it kind of is. But once you get the hang of it, you’ll never go back.
