Before I Disappear

If you feel tired but cannot explain why... If you are surrounded by people but still feel alone... If you carry stories inside you that no one ever asked about... This book is for you. Before I Disappear is not a guidebook... It is not a list of rules or steps to fix your life. It is a quiet reflection on the things we carry as we move through this world... Grief, regret, silence, heartbreak, pressure, longing, and hope. This book was written for people who feel deeply but are too tired to explain it. For people who show up for others, hold everything together... But secretly wonder... Who is holding me? It is divided into four sections that mirror the stages of our emotional life... The pressure to become something in a world that always wants more The loneliness of being the strong one The quiet breakdowns we never speak of And finally, the slow return to ourselves Each chapter touches on a different part of the emotional spectrum... guilt, love, fear, comparison, healing, letting go, regret, inner peace, and becoming. But this book is not written in long paragraphs. It is not academic or complicated. It is written in short, thread-like reflections... Just like thoughts come to us when we are hurting or healing. Just like how we speak when someone finally asks... "How are you really doing?" You can read it in one sitting... Or one chapter at a time whenever the world feels too loud. You can read it when you are falling apart... Or when you are finally putting yourself back together. It is not here to impress you. It is here to sit with you. Inside, you will find quiet truths about... Why do we feel behind in life How we carry childhood wounds into adulthood The lies we tell ourselves to survive The pressure to be strong all the time What it means to truly heal... not perfectly, but honestly How to love again without losing yourself, How to begin again, even when you feel it is too late This book was written by someone who has spent years listening. To people. To pain. To silence. It is full of things we all feel... but rarely say. And maybe, just maybe, this book will do one thing... Make you feel seen. Make you breathe a little easier. Make you feel less alone. Because if you are still breathing, it is not too late. Not to start again. Not to let go. Not to come home to yourself.
