You can be surrounded by people who love you and still feel completely unseen. This is what that loneliness is actually telling you.
When being fully yourself once felt unsafe, you learn to bring a smoother, easier, more acceptable version of yourself into the room. It works. The room stays calm. But years later, that version is still on duty, meeting people on your behalf, and the part of you that needs to be met never makes it into the room. This episode follows Diana through an ordinary week to show how the protection that once kept you safe becomes the reason you feel alone among the people closest to you.
Part of an ongoing series translating the patterns underneath everyday emotional life into short, cinematic essays.
