Caring so much about what others think has been ingrained in me from the start. It’s a long road but I’m making it to the mountain. I’m improving each day. I feel as though at first it’s a long, tiring road. When I think I’ve made it I find I now have a big mountainContinue reading “Keep Climbing”

February
I’m going to be posting about starting the new year in February. I think that despite talking about set backs being normal and okay I feel I have had one big set back recently that had a big impact on how I wanted to start my new year. I have read about people who haveContinue reading “February”
Setbacks
Life can be full of surprises. Things do not always go according to plan and that can leave us feeling deflated at times. It is with this that we can also learn how to move forwards. I have mentioned before about goals and fresh starts and how these also can come with a few setbacks.Continue reading “Setbacks”
Criticism
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. Sometimes it can be hard to hearContinue reading “Criticism”
Let today be great
Just a small reminder that you are unique. There is no one like you, you are special. Let today bring out the shine in you. Remember that it’s okay to not be okay. Just be you. Wherever you are, know that you can have better days if this one isn’t working out
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”

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 had thought it before but it was different this time. This time I felt quite down about it. I want to call itContinue reading “Life Decisions”
Alcohol and Anxiety
I’ve recently decided to stop drinking alcohol altogether. I was not an alcoholic and I didn’t drink often but when out for work outings or seeing friends for celebrations I would have a few drinks and then have that horrible feeling the next few days. I understand that this is usually the case for peopleContinue reading “Alcohol and Anxiety”
