Here lately I’ve really been evaluating my quality of life and realize I am not at all living to the degree I want. In fact, I am far from it. Even tho I’ve been proud of being med free for 2 years (the fog from trying so many medications just made it worse than the disease) I haven’t at all been happy.
Day to day living. There’s always this pain way deep in my soul that I just can’t ever seem to shake. Despite being incredibly blessed I feel this each and every day.
I’ve done my best to educate myself on depression and anxiety. I’ve completely changed my diet, exercise regularly, meditate, essential oils and massage, I drink plenty of water, I even turned to God.
And here I am, day after day considering going back on medication. Maybe my brain needs more help than I can give it naturally.
I’m hesitant because I felt so bad being on pharmaceutical drugs.
I want to be a better mom a better wife. I want my family to know that when I’m in the room I am present. Im not somewhere else in la la land.
Lulu, the important thing here is that you learned through you understanding howthis condition works. Sounds like the hard work paid off and I'm so happy for you.
Thank you for your kind words. Wishing you Peace & Calm this beautiful day xx
Feeling everything you’ve just described. I just want to feel present. I’m trying the natural route too. Essential oils, meditation, breathing. It all helps a bit. Here if you need to talk.
Wow I can’t believe it’s been 2 years since I made this post. Re reading it made me cry bc the struggle is just as real but has gotten easier with more knowledge I gain on topic.
What’s helped you most? For me it’s been the essential oils… I love the smells and it makes me take time to wind down maybe carve out some spa time! 😊
Thank you for response and taking the time to relate! 💜
