I Was Contorting 🪢

⚡ Don’t Avoid Responsibility

One Honest Step at a Time 🧼

🇵🇷

Most of us didn’t have models. We were taught to avoid — emotions, bills, hard talks, truth. These patterns aren’t personal. They’re cultural, familiares, and often passed down like heirlooms.

I used to think helping meant fixing people. Staying on the phone too long. Taking on guilt that wasn’t mine. Letting people vent trash 🗑️ into my spirit. I wasn’t connecting — I was contorting.

Underneath it all, I just wanted love. I wanted to be picked. So I became what they needed, instead of showing up as me.

But one day, I stopped. I heard my body say, “ya basta.”

💥 The Quiet Realization

I wasn’t helping. I was hustling for belonging. That’s not wellness — that’s survival.

And the truth? The people I kept trying to impress weren’t even going anywhere. They were emotionally unavailable — like I had learned to be too.

“Let them.”
If they misunderstand you — let them. If they expect a version of you that no longer exists — let them. You’re done performing. You're allowed to just be.

🌿 The Real Shifts

• 🌬️ Relief: I don’t need to be perfect to belong.
• 🪞 Recognition: That’s me. I do that.
• 🧬 Context: This is generational, not just personal.
• 🐸 Permission: I can start small. I don’t have to leap.
• 🪴 Hope: This is about wellness, not fixing.
• ⚡ Truth: Avoidance isn’t peace. It’s disconnection.
• ☀️ Power: I can choose one small action — today.

This is the shift. From bypassing to noticing. From survival to something more honest. 🥣

📍 Today, You Can:

• 🧠 Name the pattern, out loud.
• 📬 Open the bill or text back — with truth.
• 🫶🏽 Say: “This stops with me.”
• 📓 Journal one thing you're done avoiding.

It’s not too late. You’re not too behind. You’re already shifting.
