Tricky happy place.

2 Replies

Some days when I wake up it’s easy. I know what I’m going to do for the day and for the most part it runs smoothly. Then there are the “other” days, days where I wake up and want to go back to bed, to not deal w anyone or anything not because I don’t want to but because emotionally and physically I feel like I can’t. Days like today. Tears greet me upon wake up. And dread soon follows.

By know I’ve gotten to know myself enough to know that it will pass and it’s only a in the now emotion.

Does anyone else ever go thru this? What do you do to find a means to push on?

I try to stay busy. I noticed when I am with my grandson who is under two chasing him around etc. etc. I’m never depressed or anxious that’s where I like to be. When I’m just sitting around and thought that’s when everything creeps in
