Salam alaikum sisters and brothers

I have been a hijabi for any years. I was forced to wear it for 10+ years since I was 9 years old. I didn’t know anyone who wore it besides me. When I was old enough to make decisions on my own, I decided to take it off. It was one of the hardest decisions I’ve ever made in my life. But I also felt like it was necessary, because I was so incredibly sad to the point where I didn’t leave the house, because I knew I had to put I on. I kept on having dreams about the hijab choking me, and I just wanted to get rid of it.

So here I am, 8 years later. I still practice islam, pray 5 times a day and fast, but I’m still not ready to wear a hijab again. I guess I’m afraid I never will be ready again because I associate it with such bad and traumatizing memories.

What do I do?
