Job Week One Update

Well everyone I made it through my first week of work!!!! After almost 3 years of being unemployed and only lasting a couple hours at two other jobs, I actually made it through a week. I still have my constant lightheadedness and anxiety but I’m going to hope and pray to God that over time it will sort of just disappear while trying to regain a normal lifestyle. I had panic attacks and exacerbated symptoms but I stuck it out and rode them out.. nothing happened it was all just very uncomfortable. I am going to photocopy my first paycheck and keep it because I will be so extremely proud of it.

Let’s hope it continues into week two!!!

Love you all and thank you for your support 🦋

The picture was of me on my first day -- I was so nervous!!!

thanks! i sure hope it continues to get easier. all my doctors say the only way i'm going to get better is by jumping back into a normal lifestyle and routine even if i feel i can't do so. so we'll see!
