It’s no secret that this week has been a little bit of a tough one. In fact, I’d go so far as to say it was definitely my worst week in quite some time. The past few nights have been a little bit messy, not as relaxed or stress free as I’d have liked, and […]

I’m definitely in a bit of a rut right now. I feel like ever since Monday I’m just a certain type of off that I just can’t shake. And it isn’t a feeling that I love. I’m trying to shake it off and not let it get me down, but I’m telling you, I just

Wow. Well, I can say with complete certainty that therapy last night was absolute shit. Just…one of those bad night kind of nights. To be honest, it was halfway doomed for failure before we really even got started. Before anything was said, she let me know that we wouldn’t be having a session next week
Oh, Monday. You already know how I feel about you. This Monday is a little different because it’s the start of the last full week of summer here. School starts up again next Wednesday and we’ll be thrown right back into the school routine. This time with 2 kids, as my 5 year old will
To say that I’m still impacted from the two back to back car accidents that happened recently is an understatement. I have a lot of lingering anxieties and fears left from both of those accidents. Like, I can’t let anyone else drive. When me and my husband have to go somewhere, I drive now. Which

Oh, Monday? Is that you again? Well hello there! I’m glad we’ve made it another week. Another chance to start new, to do better. Another opportunity for honesty and vulnerability during those 2 hours at the end of every Monday night in therapy. The promise of a Monday isn’t subtle. It’s a new start every

Last night was certainly atypical for being an otherwise very normal night. I think…just, maybe….I might be serious about this whole, ya know, trying not to drink or whatever thing. For the first time in like, probably ever, it almost felt possible. Like, maybe I actually can at least try. So, here’s what happened. I

As always, therapy last night sure was something. I wasn’t bad. But it made me think about things. We talked a lot about being more mindful and more intentional, which, in my current state of ADHD actually kicking my ass, has been QUITE challenging lately. We talked about the drinking thing. And how I need

I’m being avoidant. I can feel it. There are always those small little tells, the little things I do when I’m becoming avoidant, that I can either pick up on and act on, or continue to ignore. Avoiding people, avoiding meaningful conversation, avoiding completing tasks that need completing, avoiding responsibilities…it all just grows on itself

I feel so…split right now. Like I’m standing at a fork in the road, and I truly don’t know which way to go. So I’m going nowhere. And I’m stuck. Just…standing there. Waiting for the choice to become obvious. And once it’s obvious, like…OBVIOUSLY obvious…only then can I move. I know the path I want.
