We all have to deal with a certain level of criticism in our lives. Whether it is to do with our performance at work, something we need to work on personally or the way in which we have approached something it is inevitable that we will experience it.

End of Year Reflection
I love looking at images of the night sky. I find it so calming and magical. This year, I feel, has been a year of immense growth. It has come with a lot of struggles and pain; more than I have felt in a long time. I felt so guilty replaying the intense emotions andContinue reading “End of Year Reflection”
Triggering
Last night I went for a Christmas work meal and it was lovely. I do get along with my colleagues and I very rarely go out in the evenings. What lead up to it, though, was the worry surrounding having something to drink. I know I said I wouldn’t have anything but a part ofContinue reading “Triggering”
A Bad Day
Some days are just bad days. There are times when you can turn them around and make them good days, but, usually a bad day is just a bad day. Recently, for me, was what I consider to be a bad day. Nothing in particular made it bad which was the strange thing. I feelContinue reading “A Bad Day”
Life Decisions
Recently I had been thinking about my job and how I feel about it. It was a strange and unsettling feeling. I didn’t think I would ever have that feeling again.

I understand that this is usually the case for peopleContinue reading “Alcohol and Anxiety”
New Home: Starting Again
Moving to a new home can be a good excuse to start again. I wanted to use us buying a house as my way of setting myself some new goals. I’m always looking at ways to improve myself and to keep growing as well as also appreciating the type of person I am. It hasContinue reading “New Home: Starting Again”
Life is too Short
We all worry from time to time but, I’ve been feeling so anxious lately that it’s been too much. I have to remind myself that life is too short to worry about silly things. So if anyone else has been worrying lots lately about the small stuff, remember, life is too short, have fun.
Stop Caring So Much
Of course it’s important to care. Caring is a natural human trate. To care means that you have enthusiasm and motivation to help others. There comes a point, though, that if you care too much about everything that you become emotionally and physically drained. People who care too much are more likely to be anxiousContinue reading “Stop Caring So Much”
Seeing the Light
It can be hard to look for the positive in every situation and it’s also impossible. Recent lessons have taught me that I am repeating the same negative thoughts and habits and I’m tired of it. I have learnt that instead of being so negative I can be tough and say, yes that was notContinue reading “Seeing the Light”
