Hi, I (Allēna) am back in front and low-key panicking…

I know that the people who know me will probably be like “what else is new” but I’ve honestly been so hung up on the fact that it’s been ten years since Xavier died this month that I forgot that all of the albums that I wrote and recorded in the wake of losing him will also be turning 10 as well until I saw a video of my Painter Guy headmate playing my arrangement of “Heroes” by David Bowie on a piano he found in the hospital we go to??? So that’s kinda fucking me up.

I honestly didn’t think I would live this long. I know a lot of people when I was 18-19 certainly didn’t think I would live this long (I was a hot fuckin mess and it took me years to get out of that tailspin) so while I’m none too happy about having to figure out how to promote a metric fuckton of albums on what is soon to be the ten year anniversary of their release, I am also trying to be compassionate toward tiny grieving past Lēna and keep in mind that I didn’t have a blessed clue that I would live to see 28-29, my depression was so goddamn bad and I was constantly trying to blot myself off the face of the Earth and writing albums instead of doing worse dumb shit. As badly as I want to go back and kick Past Lēna and to some extent, Past Eight in the ‘nads for writing and recording music like they were running out of time in 2016-17, they really didn’t know what the fuck else to do and had just lost Xavier. So I can’t really be all that angry. That being said, a bitch is fucking tired and I don’t have anything close to a promotion strategy for any of this shit. I don’t even have regular access to a piano anymore.

So yeah. There is all of that to contend with.

Wish me mother fucking luck.

-Allēna

I have to admit I thought long and hard about including the 1st photo in this post as I look and felt so vulnerable but then I realised that I should because that’s the whole point.
Vulnerable is exactly how I’m feeling and have been feeling for a good week and that feeling will be high up there until after my birthday on the 23rd of this month. Now that I’m exploring my feelings instead of ignoring them, I’m aware that I feel this way every year. My birthday has always been tied up with feelings of rejection, pain and loss. I can honestly say I haven’t had many birthdays at all that have been joyful but those years that were I hold very dear because they are so rare.
I have decided to pick through all of the pain so that I can finally find peace, hopefully. As birthdays are supposed to be celebrations (so I’m told) I would like for this one to be the last painful one.
This morning I found a bubble blower and I sat feeling extremely vulnerable and I blew bubbles. I connected with my always sad and confused inner child and let her feel peace. The chirping of the birds, the sun on her skin, the beauty of the bubbles in the sunshine and that magical popping sound. No pressure, no anything, just being exactly in the moment of beauty and wonder. I think allowing my inner child out is key to healing, she went through so much and deserves to feel joy, laughter and freedom to be her without judgement. I say without judgement because it’s something I’ve always done since I was a child and it’s stifled me as an adult.
I have a week or so to figure out how but I’m going to try and let this birthday be one for my inner child, to see if I can help us to heal. #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthjourney #healing #healingfromtrauma #healingisaprocess #innerchild #innerchildtherapy #therapy #findingjoy #findingpeace #workinprogress

Sharing a blogspot about a #healingjourney

"My job was to act like I received all the love and care in the world, just like the rich kids around me. If I couldn’t feel that way it meant I was bad. And I was sure I was bad. I wasn’t even able to feel my mother loved me. As an adult, I learned that me and my siblings should have been removed from the family."
