I really love how you describe bad days today vs bad days a year ago.
I feel like we are at the same point in our journey. I have had a lot of space this year to learn how to regulate.
Bad days for me a year ago were full of screaming and hiding in a dark closet. Feeling anger towards my husband for something as petty as not showering …for a year and a half….and guilt towards myself for losing my temper and becoming someone I absolutely hated.
I agree with your statement about bad days being quieter now. They sneak up on me at least once a week. Something that bothers me will sneak up out of the blue and lead the trajectory of my mood for the day.
My bad days leave me confused now cause I still get through them feeling relatively positive or maybe even bewildered cause I some how block out a good chunk of the day that made it bad.
Bad days are definitely a part of life no matter where you are in life. I too have learnt to take them from a softer place. It isn't failure, it isn't a sleight against me. It's just part of life
I feel things really really deeply. But I have learnt to regulate those hard days better. With honesty.
I really felt this. I’ve been through a very similar journey — from those loud, overwhelming days to the quieter “fog” ones you describe so well. And honestly… just yesterday I had one of those bad days. What always brings me back, though, is movement. It’s the one thing that shifts something inside me when my mind feels stuck or heavy. Even when I don’t feel like it, it reconnects me. Thank you for putting this into words. It really resonates.

I have bad days and just wait for it to pass as the sun will set soon enough and the night will erase all the badness of that day.

♥️ thank you for reading it
“Years ago, my bad days were storms.
Now they are fog.”
That shift changes the whole map.
Not smaller—
just something you move through
instead of something that takes you under.
