Whether you are pregnant or have fathered a child unexpectedly, your world has just been turned upside down. You are certainly in a state of complete overwhelm. Or maybe even shock. And this is completely understandable for what you are going through right now. You are undoubtedly experiencing so many conflicting emotions of confusion, fear, hopelessness, anger, shame and anxiety.
And as you feel these different emotions, you will need to work through them. You must do this in order to get better clarity on what you need to do.
So let me help you with this so it doesn’t feel so overwhelming. I know that right now, it doesn’t seem like things will work out for you, but they will. This is a very difficult time, so please remember to have compassion for yourself for what you are going through.
I cannot stress enough how important it is to begin journaling from your emotions during this time.
People around you will want to give you advice, and it will become quite confusing at times. And that’s why I want your decisions to be made by you and for you as much as possible.
And in order to do this, journaling from your emotions is the best way to find out how you really feel. No one can tell you how you feel. This has to come from you.
As you begin to write from your emotions that are coming up, you will be able to make the right decisions for you. What decision do you need to make for you right now? What decision can you live with? What do you need to do for you right now? What do you want? You have the answers right now. Just trust yourself.
