I was at work yesterday and I have been so confused in what I want to do going forward. Anxiety kicks in full force and I become numb. Why? Fear of the unknown. I just can’t shake it off sometimes. When I am at work, I become this motivated individual and I think to myselfContinue reading “Judgement Day”

What a year!!! I couldn’t have asked for a better year! The renewed and improved has kept me going. We had a secret santa at work this year and I asked for positive affirmations in some form.

I am writing this because this is how I feel right now. What do I want to do? I have no freaking idea.

Oh the word, perfectionism. This word taunts at me ever darn day. The last few days have been rough. I have resorted to going to bed more. Why? Because I don’t know what I want going forward. I have no clue. I have plenty of eggs in the basket. Not in that kind of basket,Continue reading “Perfection is Fear”

Why do we blame others? It’s just easier that way. We don’t want to own up to our own feelings. When I first started taking anti-depressants, I was in a weird living situation. Nothing was going right. My boyfriend at the time was staying out till the bars closed every single night. My family unitContinue reading “The Blame Game”

We are living in different times right now. We have to take a breath and really hone in on what is important to us. The healthcare profession is suffering right now.
