Hello everyone!!(っ^▿^)۶🍸🌟🍺٩(˘◡˘ )

I have chosen May 1st to be the starting point of two, month long challenges to earn two badges!! The Self-care and self-love badge! Start May 1st, end May 31st!

Self-care - Exercise at least 3 times a week for a month!╰☆╮
Self-love - Do something nice for yourself everyday for a month!╰☆╮

I wanted to invite everyone to join along with me!! It can be hard to do this along, sticking to commitments is no easy task!! However I wanted to gather people so we can do it together and be supportive of one another during the month of May!!

Because I mean for real, exercing? Not easy!! But we can do it!!

Post if you would like to commit to either or both of these self care &love challenges and what you have done through out the month!!

Thank you!!!

All my love,

╰⊰❀SacredBlossom`❀⊱╮

Today...

As self-care, I biked to and from school and swam for an hour.

As self-love, I hung out with my mom for a couple hours because I'm not going to see her for two weeks and we wanted to spend time together.

Today is Friday! That means I'm coaching a very special old school derby scrimmage on the banked track, then we have flat track practice I'm leading. I'll spend the day cleaning and preparing for a big game tomorrow

Self-love: I'm doing something that I've been putting off and just doing it. I finally found the determination I was looking for!

Self-care: Walking to work rather than taking the subway/taxi...

(Side note:It's Ride Your Bike to Work Week but I think that's dangerous in the city.I need new shoes. My shoes are so worn out.)

Alright so I have had a rough three days so far :( But I have been trying to pep myself up!

Self care: Had a good cry and let myself let all my emotions out, in a healthy way.

Self love: Had some quality time with my mom! <3

Ok, so I wanted to put this out to let my peers see that doing the coping skills and using the tools from our guides list really helps.

5-1-15 ( Had 4 clusterseizures and went to the E.R)

5-12-15 ( spent a day listing to a Song that would related to Recovery and go it shot down because it was to kiddy.

5-13-15 ( My SPEECH Started stuttering and its hard to understand me)

5-15-15 ( I stood up and told myself that my life is my own and nothing was pulling me back to my old ways and I would learn to like my new speech andembrace it andavocated for my feels and never break down and let my demons win the war

@Reececup1986Wow, that is a lot go through. Your determination is inspiring, I need a lot of that myself right now.

I'm struggling myself a lot, I am and have been so disconnected from myself and true nature, trying to be who I am is very difficult, frankly I'm terrified, paralyzed emotionally. I don't know if the cause is my amnesia, my depression my trauma/panic attacks, or just the magnitude of heart break and grief I have in my heart. But I'm scared.

I'm scared I wont be ok, I'm scared I wont be able to be myself, I'm scared I wont be able to be open emotionally, I'm scared I can't be genuinely supportive of others.

I just got my peer support badge and I'm kinda freaking out if I can be a good peer support or not, I feel so closed inside. as if who I am and my heart was just a step away, but i have to take that step in faith, i need to bridge the gap, jump the gap. I can't live like this anymore!! I can't live so closed!!

I need to stop being so closed. I guess I just didn't want to get hurt anymore, be anymore heart broken than I already am. but I'll forever be heart broken if I don't allow myself to open up and heal. I'm like a yellow tulip that never blooms because I'm just too scared.

BUT I CANT BE SCARED ANYMORE! I JUST CANT!!!! I CANT!!!!!!!!!!

So.. I choose to heal!! I choose to admit I have a problem!! I choose to release the negative patterns in me that has created my negative expirences and negative emotions!! I'm willing to change!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is great that your taken a stand for your health and going to fight tooth and nail. Just remember that you have the support, but you got to seek out and ask for the hand to help. I wish you the best of luck and if you need some skills I would be happy to shout some your way.
