Saying Goodbye

Over the past couple weeks, I've had a lot of time to think. And I hit on something.
Yes I have mental illness and yes I want to be an advocate, but the way I've been going about it is distinctly not me. Instead of marking myself feel better about it, in the way I went about it I was letting my illness define me. And there is so much more to me then that. So while I won't avoid it in conversation, I'm going to move on and follow my true passions because that is where I can make an impact. 

So for this reason, this is goodbye. I will leave my blog up for now and I hope it can help you. Go out there and be great! 

Thank you.

Tea Time Rambles

This week's ramble

This week I have been continuing a very difficult med change. I don't want to do anything, I'm very emotional and very hard to work with. This is not a-typical for the meds that are being changed. It is still very hard. Normal things are so different, even if not bad, and then I get confused and distressed and it all goes down from there. But I'm trying not to let it overcome me. I get dressed every day. Yesterday I put on makeup for the first time sense the med change. I try to get out of the house as much as possible even though I just want to crawl into me bed and hide.

Doing hard things is uncomfortable! No one says it is easy. But there is no magic pill or treatment. You have to make an effort, which is excruciating sometimes. But if you do it, it will be very hard, but very rewarding. Don't let your mental illness own you. Go out and kick some butt!
