I know that quite a few people here are also going through the trenches of therapist loss/abandonment/termination, etc. (though, honestly, this is for anyone who is going through anything that feels entirely overwhelming and life-shattering).

I wanted to just share a song that's been playing on repeat in my head during this time for me. I'll forewarn that there are faith-related lyrics in bits of this song (mention of 'grace' and 'heaven'), though, honestly, I don't listen to this as a faith song or anything. (Me and my faith aren't getting along these days, so, I've really got no interest in that sort of song right now.)

I'll post lyrics below the link if you'd rather just read



You're shattered
Like you've never been before
The life you knew
In a thousand pieces on the floor
And words fall short in times like these
When this world drives you to your knees
You think you're never gonna get back
To the you that used to be

Tell your heart to beat again
Close your eyes and breathe it in
Let the shadows fall away
Step into the light of grace
Yesterday's a closing door
You don't live there anymore
Say goodbye to where you've been
And tell your heart to beat again

Beginning
Just let that word wash over you
It's alright now
Love's healing hands have pulled you through
So get back up, take step one
Leave the darkness, feel the sun
'Cause your story's far from over
And your journey's just begun

Tell your heart to beat again
Close your eyes and breathe it in
Let the shadows fall away
Step into the light of grace
Yesterday's a closing door
You don't live there anymore
Say goodbye to where you've been
And tell your heart to beat again

Let every heartbreak
And every scar
Be a picture that reminds you
Who has carried you this far
'Cause love sees farther than you ever could
In this moment heaven's working
Everything for your good

Tell your heart to beat again
Close your eyes and breathe it in
Let the shadows fall away
Step into the light of grace
Yesterday's a closing door
You don't live there anymore
Say goodbye to where you've been
And tell your heart to beat again
Your heart to beat again
Beat again

Oh, so tell your heart to beat again
