I notice I need extra rest and I need to ask for help with the things I would normally do with no problem 😌

Those are self care things
You know your limits so you ask for help. You listen to your body and if it needs rest you do that.
Those are positive things my friend
❤️🐬
Praying for a sudden shift. I need to do some things for my kids that I am scared to do and I need to believe I can do them. But for now I will rest as I believe I can and try not to overthink anymore.
Very helpful Starrlight. Sometimes we don't see the signs as they need to
be pointed out so we remember to get back on the right path. Thank you xx
I thought I replied to this but I don't see it but anyway, I love this post! Very helpful and thank you for sharing it.✨️✨️✨️✨️
I was just thinking of you yesterday . Good to read of you and the football. Sounds fun. Hugs to you and pixiebob. I’m watching movie as I haven’t energy to get up and find something better to do
Rainbows always remind me of promises kept and the hope in that
Love you 🥰
Haaaaaaa!
I’ve been doing most of the things on that list for most of my life.
I think everybody in my family has had depression and/or an anxiety disorder for at least three generations.
Twinkly!!!!! Huggggggg and thank you 😊
I wish I saw something like this months ago, maybe it wouldn’t have gotten so bad now if I did. I thought I was just a weak and pathetic brat. Turns out it was a depressive episode, literally learned about that just yesterday. I think I might be coming out of it but it feels as if I’m getting dragged deeper with every misstep.
Sometimes I’m scared this heaviness will never leave and clarity may never fully return, but I’ve learned to try and remind myself (thanks to the people here) that my current reality will not be my forever.
I notice a pattern. At first it's more chronic pain then I can only sleep for short periods of time so I'm exhausted all day and all night. Then everything else falls apart because I only do what I absolutely have to do so other things pile up. By the time I feel like trying to catch up I push too hard and it all starts again. Thanks for reminding me it's all connected. Going to save this as a reminder. I don't have to do everything in one day.
Love this. So helpful. Thanks Starr. How are you doing?
Hey beautiful! I woke up scared. Im trying to put myself together. Talked to my husband who helped me. But still battling.
How are you? What are you up to?
I realized when I read over herphychology list that I'm not as depressed as I thought I was. I guess the real thing I'm feeling is pressure and emptiness in everything I do right now. I've had allot things happening in the past 5 yrs. my husband's cancer, I've had 3 stomach surgeries, we moved, built a house that was stressful but we are now in it. Thankful that's behind me. After all that is said and done these past 5 yrs. it's left me empty and everything feels like pressure to get most anything done and I don't have much to give back to others. I apologize, I didn't mean to dump on you. Glad your able to reach out to other's when you need help, that is awesome! so many people don't have that.
I hear you. That’s a lot that’s happened with you. I can relate. Pressure and emptiness. Interesting, not even sure what I feel.. I’m glad you have passed all those big life changes. I feel like I’m always on edge waiting for some terrible thing to happen and it’s hard to do all I need to do. I’m exhausted.
How are you doing?
Cool. I’m not too good but trying my best
