I Was So Wrecked..I Read

A while back I was having a lot of issues with this guy and I really had no way to express how I was feeling. When I tell you I DID NOT READ EVER!!! I mean it. Even in school I literally would fake all of my work and cheat on everything in English just so I didn’t have to read when it honestly would’ve been easier just to read the book. I’ve always struggled with reading, it made me feel dumb. I’ve never been a fast reader and I very easily mix up words.

It felt like I was stuck, I had no motivation to do anything, music wasn’t hitting, literally nothing was working out for me. I needed change. This guy was killing my brain. It wasn’t like I was trying to find a way to get him to like me, I needed to get him off my mind and I was willing to try anything.

I came across a tiktok about reading therapy and I took it as a sign. I went to a website to buy second hand books, and bought 7. It was a little overboard, especially for someone who doesn’t read but I didn’t know that. The first book I read was “You Are a Bada*s” it took me 2 1/2 weeks to read and that was with me reading everyday. I just threw on my headphones and turned on a lofi study playlist and began reading. For once I was reading to find something for myself instead of reading to finish a book. I was the one turning to the book, I was the one that needed its help. It honestly gave me a whole new perspective on living and woke me up from a life I was stuck in. Here’s the outcome of my plead for help:)Follow me while I go through what each book taught me, what I took from it, and if I recommend it. I’ll post at least once a day:)ty for listening and let me know if u can relate because I can’t be the only one who had to go through this right?
