Six months today and it hit me out of nowhere

Joseph Lindgren · 9/9/2026

I thought I was doing better. Then a song came on in the supermarket and I had to leave my trolley in the aisle. Six months to the day. Does it keep ambushing you like this?

Six months was worse than three for me. I think the numbness wears off right when everyone assumes you're better.

Supermarkets are brutal. It's the ordinary places that get you, never the ones you brace for.

Leaving the trolley was the right call. No medal for finishing the shop.

Thinking of you today. Six months of carrying it is no small thing.
