Lack of sleep is never good for PMA, is it? And I feel like, when several things are wrong, it is easy to let the negative thoughts pile up. (Cloudy/cold/rainy always throws off my PMA in a big way!)
You did a great job recovering and refocusing on what is positive in your life. I have been trying to think of crying as a release, and hurt as healing . . . I don't think it is bad or a setback to let yourself cry and lean into the hurt for a bit. It helps you to move forward.
When I was at Disneyland, I found a little metal trinket/pocket charm that has TInkerbell on one side, and says "believe" on the other. It made me think of you! I bought it for myself because I think I too, need to believe. Thanks for inspiring me.
