∆ Get help from loved ones and don’t give room for isolation

Allow loved ones to assist you in this journey of healing from emotional trauma. Talk to them, do not isolate yourself. Isolation may only bring more self pity and negative thoughts but when u seek help from loved ones, you are gradually taking the right step of healing process
