“For a long time, I was like, ‘Oh this is just\u2026 The glitter wears off. That’s what happens.’ And then you get into a phase where you wait for it to come back. And then sometimes it doesn’t. At the end of the day, it is such a disservice and a dishonouring of yourself if you know something is not right and you stay. (Shame) is the one thing that I just refuse to feel . . . Judge me for it, fine, that’s on you.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Kelsea recently moved into what she called her “dream house” but she hasn’t been staying by herself.<\/p>\n
“Whether it was my mom or my dad or my friends, I’ve had my people really rally for me and I’m not ready to be alone yet, and I don’t think that I’m avoiding anything, ’cause I’m definitely in my feels, cause I really want to heal properly\u2026 But yeah, I don’t think that’s what I need right now.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Kelsea also said that a longtime friend moved into the house with her.<\/p>\n
