Something’s not right

Tough Times

Tough Times

I thought I'd open up this discussion for anyone going through a rough time at the moment and want to get some extra support.
I am struggling a lot at the moment dealing with a range of things. One thing a struggle with is Anxiety. This is something I deal with everyday. I wake up with it every morning and fall asleep (when I sleep) with it every night. Some days are worse than other days. Distractions play a big part in coping with it daily. At the moment being stuck at home schooling my kids is my biggest distraction. It helps most of the time however sometimes it can be a real struggle to stay present and calm. We as a family try to go for a walk everyday. We take our family dog with us. Another distraction for me is cooking but this can be a challenge as I struggle with motivating myself but when I get into it I create some nice things. Today my 8year old son and I made oat based banana and chic chip muffins. 😋😋

I hope everyone's day has been a good day filled with self care and motivation.

Re: Tough Times

Yea a decent sleep does wonders for the body and mind. I had a couple SP which put me to sleep for 2 hrs but now I am awake and can't seem to go back to sleep.

Re: Tough Times

@Lee82 yes I have some SP but if I take them I feel like I am drowning and gasping for air. I refuse to take them now so rely on normal meds to give me some sleep :). Dont you hate having to take all these meds .... I wish I didnt have to.
