Cheering you on for standing your ground even though it's hard! Sending you a virtual hug- the escalator incident sounds really upsetting. When I can't put a reason behind people's behaviour events tend to stay with me for longer.

Thank you Sigrid! And yeah, I feel the same. Those random events that feel hard to grasp have a tendency to stay with me for way longer because my brain just wants to understand!

I’m so sorry about the escalator incident! That sounds very scary and traumatic. I can’t believe people. I got bit by a tiny dog once on a walk and I cried for a day about it. I think it brought on other things to cry about— but my point is that getting physically hurt as an adult when you are just going about your day is inexplicably upsetting.

Maybe treat yourself to something small but lovely that won’t compound financial stress? Xx

Thank you Jennifer, it was really upsetting and I'm still trying to calm myself down honestly. The whole event just keeps running on repeat in my mind, trying to understand what actually happened or what triggered her. I'll probably never know, which sucks.

Hopefully in time it will just be a weird unpleasant memory 🙏

Men vad i hela friden! Vad är det för mamma som är ute på stan och använder vagnen som något slags vapen? Yikes 😵‍💫😬

Julia!! That red shirt from &Other Stories is adjacent to Emily’s green top that we both were admiring! Great find!!

I am new(er) to Glucose Goddess and the veggie starter has changed everything for me!! I also loosely follow the order she recommends eating things in and I feel like it’s helped my digestion so much.

Idk if red will keep being as much of a "thing", but it looked really good on the website so I might have to pop in and try it on in-store and report back!

It's crazy how much her tips help but when you think about it, it actually makes a lot of sense!

I would feel a bit shaken about being rammed by a pram with the kid still in it!

My ego and legs are bruised for sure, but mostly I just feel really bad for the kid

The escalator sounds absolutely traumatic as Jennifer said above! I had a week with several stressful events that triggered adrenaline rushes, as I’m sure your attack did, and it really wipes you out! I felt like a zombie for hours after, and it was just really hard. Last night I finally was in a position where I knew I could sleep in this morning (til 8:30 am which for me is LATE) so I took a melatonin and literally slept like the dead. I highly recommend getting some good sleep tonight if you are able! I’m so sorry that happened- sending a hug!

P.s. Thank you for the shout out 🥰

Thank you Emily! I'm always so shocked at how depleted both body and mind gets after an adrenaline rush - total zombie mode. I'm so glad you got a good night's sleep though and I'm aiming for a 10 pm bedtime tonight.

Of course - your post was a real must-read!
