I've had some very stressful times, and they are not resolved at this point. It seemed like things were coming in waves and it affected my whole family as well. It is the type of events that not only knock you to the ground but crush your spirit.
Although it has been rough, I am so far pushing through. I try to tell myself that there is a chance to live in the moment and even in the midst of struggle, there are moments when there is peace, distraction and even enjoyment.
The strange part is that even though my anxiety has been high I am also realizing that I have some ability to cope with it. It is not to the level I would want but therapy, meds and reading have prevented me from being defenseless.
Anyway, I just needed to vent.
I appreciate you all and hope everyone has better days and better mental health. We all need to know we are not alone.
