Hi @TGKC 

 

Absolutely, it really connected with me when I first saw it. Especially when you talk to people and they say "It gets smaller as time goes on" just didn't sound right to me as this person I've lost or this situation I've lost matters to me and I don't want that significance to decrease as time goes on. But as my life gets fuller it doesn't take up so much space and I liked that analogy.

 

That's such a great idea to change things, I know my grades took a dive when I struggled with mental health through high school (but honestly high school grades don't matter at all anyway) There are so many ways to get to different careers now a-days. I mean even myself, I failed some exams after some time off high school and now years later I'm getting distinction marks at university in studying psychology (humble brag ๐Ÿ˜‚) I'm going to include another image that I really love, it's about failure and all these amazing people who started out with huge failures before they became successful. 1_EL_TXBCdsCryskCWE-W6Bw.jpeg

 

Those links seem amazing! I'm glad to hear you've been able to get support from her psychologist as well and I'm glad to hear communication has been getting better.

 

I think if you both can try and keep real open and honest communication with each other, even when it's hard and it hurts, it's going to help a long way and it seems you are both on that track! I hope you both have a lovely holiday break, sounds like it's definitely needed.
