You’re Not Lose. You’re Just Disconnected
You don’t need to fix yourself.
You just need to find your way back to you.
But when you’ve been disconnected for so long—numbing, pushing, performing—it can feel like there’s nothing to come back to.
I get it.
Because for years, I lived in that exact fog.
I could organize a vacation, coordinate a tournament, juggle all the projects…
But I couldn’t plan to fall apart.
Not without guilt.
Not without the fear that if I unraveled—I wouldn’t know how to come back.
So instead, I stayed busy.
I stayed productive.
I looked “fine.”
And I felt nothing.
The Truth: You’re not alone.
According to a 2022 study in the Journal of Affective Disorders, high-functioning depression and emotional detachment are dramatically underdiagnosed in women who present as successful or organized.
They keep it together—but inside? They're numb, exhausted, and isolated.
Because high-functioning doesn’t mean high-feeling.
5 Signs You’re Disconnected from Yourself:
You check in with everyone else’s needs before your own
You fear slowing down because of what might come up
You can’t remember the last time you truly felt joy
You second-guess your “gut” because you don’t trust your feelings
You pray, but it feels like you’re just talking to the air
Here’s what I want you to hear loud and clear:
You’re not broken. You’re not lazy. You’re not too sensitive.
You’ve just been surviving—numbed out from carrying too much alone.
Coming home to yourself isn’t about spa days or bubble baths.
It’s about reconnection.
With your body.
With your emotions.
With God.
It’s about building a relationship with yourself that feels… safe.
