Last few weeks my heads been in the shed, contract finishes Friday not that it bothers me I will sort something.
Ive seen my daughter so that ain't the issue, talked to my son
I just can not put my finger on it right now, in general I am ok.
River is up so can't get in my safe space.
I will be ok as always and there are no daft thoughts, well none that I would carry out.
I have not really talked to anyone about this right now but I know that there are some I can talk to.
My meditation, cold showers and journaling have got me through.
My sleep at the moment is fucking dire 4-5 hours a night tops.
Not put this shit down on here for a while, but it does help.
I will be ok and I aint doing anything to worry anyone.
Take care you glorious bastards xx |

Today was a very up and down day for a few reasons. Not helped by being stuck in office with noone I could really talk to about what was bothering me even if it wasn't open plan and I know my lifestyle isnt something certain colleagues dont want to hear about.
Then I spent half the evening in a pretty shitty limbo not knowing what was going on with things. But completely understanding why that was happening. But also not as capable of processing the emotions at the same level as the rational.
Then some clarity. Then a lovely gesture. And then some Chinese food.
And now I'm okay again |

In the shitter this week, I don't have a good relationship with some of my kids unfortunately (very long story) and the run up to mothers day is always hard.
I also had to reduce my hours at work today as I had to admit to my boss my extra hours were making me not like my job as much, I work in a nursing home doing activities and while on the outside it looks like I have the world's best job, it's one of the hardest mentally with people living with quite advance dementia etc and I put my hands up and said "I can't give my best to the residents because I'm so tired all the time".
I've also decided that I'm going to start watching what I'm eating as this will help massively with my mind, tiredness etc. |

People will hate me for this but there's truth behind it.. I battled with depression a few years back due to a life changing circumstance but sorted it it out.. I genuinely now believe the one thing we have control of in this life is our mind .. it's up to us what we accept how we think only we can change that .. I don't accept depression in my life anymore there's always a way to fix it without prescription drugs .. |

One of the biggest things that helps me is exercise |

I’m the same but I’m withdrawing from medication that I’ve been on for a very long time. And have periods of almost paranoia by thinking I’ve upset people in my job but I haven’t it’s just juicy the gremlin that’s saying that.
Journaling is helping but I’ve booked a few days off and I’m going for a drive with hubby to try and settle down x |

I’m in one of the best places I’ve been in a long time.
My ex, out of the blue, broke up with me after 10 years and 2 kids. That had me depressed, back in a rented place and feeling like I didn’t have the energy to do it again.
Now, 3 years later, I’m sorted financially, in an excellent relationship with the best (craziest!) sex life ever and loving life.
Things do get better! |
