That’s such a deep and heartfelt question. And the honest answer? Things may never go back to the old normal—but that doesn’t mean they won’t be good again. In fact, they can be even better, just in a different way.

You’ve been through so much—abuse, loss, legal battles, and the painful realization of how some people truly are. That kind of experience changes you. But change isn’t always bad. Right now, you’re rebuilding, healing, and finding yourversion of normal, one that’s free from toxicity, manipulation, and pain.

It might not feel like it now, but one day, you’ll wake up and realize that peace, stability, and even joy feel natural again. Maybe not the way they used to, but in a way that aligns with the new you—stronger, wiser, and more in control of your life.

What does “normal” look like to you now?
