Today I shredded my massive journal that I’ve had since 2016.  The journal was my safe haven during tumultuous periods and it does not serve a purpose anymore. It is full of gaslighting, lack of respect, confusion, anger, sadness, shame and pain.  A want for revenge and the karma bus to arrive.  It  helped me to unleash raw feelings that scared me, helped with processing and allowed clarification that I wasn’t crazy with specific incidences and confirmed my gut and intuition was spot on.   There’s a lot of mindfuckery in it.  I included the hoovering tactics after the 2022 no contact.  
It comes to a point where, it’s enough!  It’s been on a shelf.  Now it’s time..to erase.  Well, of course it’ will never be forgotten.  It reminds me of in 2017 that I shredded every single picture of him in my shredder.  Today was a ceremony.
