Rebirth

Today in therapy I learned the Latin root of my name is Renatus, which means “reborn.”

I’ve been in full-time therapy since Monday and, as the sun finally starts to come out in my brain, I can’t help but feel the significance of this meaning.

So, to celebrate my emotional gestational period, here’s a selfie of me without makeup, in a Christmas sweater I picked up off my bedroom floor and had to smell before I put it back on.

Cheers to rebirth, finding my way back to self love, and the UofM hospital psychiatric team
