Before I Learned to Love Myself is a collection of prose, poetic essays, and emotional reflections that explore the raw and unfiltered journey of self-discovery. Written in the spirit of Thought Catalog, this book speaks directly to anyone who has ever felt broken, forgotten, or unworthy of love-especially their own. Divided into 200 chapters, each entry navigates themes of heartbreak, identity, healing, and quiet transformation. Through diary-style honesty, gentle metaphors, and modern poetic fragments, the author captures what it means to lose yourself in people, in expectations, and in silence-and then slowly find your way back home. This book is not about being perfect. It's about being real. It's about the painful truths we don't say out loud, the people we hold on to too long, and the versions of ourselves we shed along the way.

Things I Wasn't Supposed to Say: A Journal of Silent Battles and Unspoken Truths
They told me to stay quiet. To smile, to endure, to bury the words that burned inside me. But silence is heavy. And sometimes the only way to survive is to write the things no one wants to hear. This book is a collection of truths-raw, tender, and unapologetically human. It speaks of invisible wounds, love that aches, hope that refuses to die, and the quiet rebellion of being yourself in a world that demands masks. If you've ever felt too much, stayed unheard, or carried a storm inside- these words are for you.Concluida
WHEN THE RAIN FORGOT TO FALL
I wrote this because I needed to survive it. Because there are some feelings too big for silence. Some heartbreaks too heavy to carry alone. This isn't fiction. This is my heart, broken open and rearranged into verse. "I saw you standing where the sidewalk curves, and suddenly my chest knew different words." - That's how it started. A glance. A stranger. A feeling I couldn't ignore. "You said we needed to talk. Those five words, I knew. I already knew." - And that's how it ended. Not with fire. With silence. I won't tell you that time heals all wounds. I won't say everything happens for a reason. I won't pretend heartbreak makes you stronger. But I will show you that: You can survive what you think will destroy you. You can break and still become beautiful. You can love someone and lose them and still be whole. You can be your own happy ending. I wrote these poems with tears on my face. I wrote them on good days when I forgot to hurt. Every word is something I actually felt. Every line is a moment I actually lived. "You are not broken. You are breaking open. And that's where the light gets in." - That's what this taught me. That's what I hope it gives you, the comfort of knowing you're not alone.Concluida
The Weight Of Expectations
In this raw and unflinching memoir, I share my deeply personal struggle to find acceptance and belonging in a society that often seeks to marginalize and shame those who don't fit the mold. With unapologetic honesty, I recount my experiences growing up fat in a thin-obsessed world, navigating the complexities of body image, self-worth, and identity. From the painful sting of bullying and fat-shaming to the liberating power of self-love and acceptance, I take readers on a journey of resilience, self-discovery, and ultimately, triumph. With humor, vulnerability, and fierce determination, I challenge societal norms and confront the harsh realities of living in a body that doesn't conform. This memoir is my story of finding my voice, claiming my space, and learning to love myself in a world that doesn't always love me back. I share my struggles, my fears, and my moments of triumph, in the hopes that my story will inspire others to do the same. *I hold no rights over the Cover*Concluida
Embers and Petals
In Embers and Petals, the quiet fragments of healing meet the gentle art of self-acceptance. Through fifty deeply personal and reflective chapters, this book takes readers on a journey of rediscovering themselves-where pain becomes the soil from which strength blooms, and where even the smallest ember of hope can ignite transformation. Each page blends poetry and introspection, unraveling the beauty hidden within flaws, heartbreaks, and silent battles. Embers and Petals is not merely a story of healing-it's an embrace for every soul learning to rise from ashes while carrying the soft grace of petals.
Fate or Coincidence
This is a deeply personal, memoir-style journey through love, trauma, and resilience. Told through the raw and reflective voice of the writer, the story traces her relationship with K-a boy who entered her life during one of its darkest chapters. What begins as a quiet love formed in the shadows of grief soon becomes a lifeline, a bond that offers hope in the face of abandonment, violence, and heartbreak. But love alone is not enough to heal all wounds. As time passes, silence grows, promises break, and the author is left to pick up the shattered pieces of herself. Set against a backdrop of family conflict, emotional scars, and a search for identity, this is not just a story about first love lost-it's about survival. It's about the courage to walk away, the strength to heal, and the quiet power of finally choosing yourself.Concluida
