Feelings check in: tell us how you're feeling using a song lyric Mine right now is "I wish you could see me now, I wish I could show you how, I'm not who I was" from a Brandon Heath song. It's a mix of pride in myself for growing, but regret that someone I care about isn't here to see it

"no matter how cold the winter, there's a spring time ahead" pearl jam - thumbing my way

There was a time when I tried to hold the ocean in my fists When I mistook the language for the light There was a tightness that gripped my soul and bubbled at my wrists And choked me within inches of my life But now I'm letting go And I can finally breathe, I can finally breathe And my hands are open, reaching out I'm learning how to live with doubt I'm learning how to lean into the grey 'Cause I've had enough of black and white I'll find another way and I will lean into the grey I'll lean into the grey There was a time when I tried to bind and bottle up the sea I tried to hide my heart inside my head There was a maze of these vicious lies that cut through everything I pulled against them till my body bled But now I'm letting go And I can finally breathe,… The Grey, By Thrice. I feel this this song is most relatable to how I’m trying to no longer let ocd control me and letting go of what my mind is telling me.

“I don't want to be anything Other than what I've been trying to be lately All I have to do is think of me and I have peace of mind I'm tired of looking around rooms wondering what I gotta do Or who I'm supposed to be I don't want to be anything other than me” I Don’t Want to Be by Gavin DeGraw

"You may find yourself in the dead of night Lost somewhere out there in the great big beautiful sky We're all just perfect little satellites Spinning round and round this broken earthly life." Satellite Call - Sara Bareilles

It's rainin' but there ain't a cloud in the sky Musta been a tear from your eye Everything'll be okay Funny thought I felt a sweet summer breeze Musta been you sighin' so deep Don't worry we're gonna find a way I'm waitin', waitin' on a sunny day Gonna chase the clouds away Waitin' on a sunny day From "Waitin' on a Sunny Day" By Bruce Springsteen

Here’s what I got “All these issues I’m facing today, I cannot push them away. The thoughts get bigger, but I ain’t giving in, no, not today. Everyone seems to go up, and here you see me spiraling down. Why the nights get colder? Is the sun not bright enough? Now you see me lying in bed, rumbling thoughts in my head.” I made this in 10 minutes and rushed it

"I've run out of all that I was, I've searched for the meaning and ended up lost but I, see the light at the end of the road, and it's guiding me home" - limitless by crown the empire ?

I'd have to paste the whole song here so I'll just paste a link instead ? https://youtu.be/ON-A0LjR5t8

My heart is singing, “I’m free to be me, & you’re free to be you.” ~Francesca Battistelli. But the OCD in my brain is saying, “Cold world out there kids grab ya coats.” ~NF

“Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my open mind, possessing and caressing me” - Across The Universe

When it gets hard I get a little stronger now I get a little braver now And when it gets dark I get a little brighter now I get a little wiser now Before I give my heart away

I absolutely love that song!!
