Stress is suffocating me 😃
Do you ever feel like life has never stopped throwing traumatic lemons at your head?
I can feel my chromosomes unraveling from stress 😅 The past handful of years have been the worst and I’ve done all the things to heal and cope. I go to therapy, I’m on meds. Sometimes it just feels like I’m stuck like this and maybe I need to accept my “new normal” and other times I gaslight myself into thinking I’m just being dramatic and it’s my fault. Logically I know that’s not true, but our brains are jerks to us sometimes, right?
You’d think um hey you’re supposed to be keeping me healthy and alive, why are you being such a jerky jerkface. I will sometimes roll my eyes at myself with my crazy *** thoughts. Like girl, chill out, shush.

Yes, our brains can indeed be jerks 😁
I get what you mean, it's difficult when things happen, one thing after another.
It can be hard to dust ourselves down and keep going.
But hope is all we have.
And large buckets of ice cream 💖💜

That sounds really frustrating, sometimes we can be our own worst enemy. Sending you hugs!

Yes and YES. My brain can be such a jerk to me, making me think all sorts of things that are lies and making me feel so darn anxious!!
