Weekend Inspo ✨

When I first learned about this, I was sad. I'm a serious human. Even when I was a child, I was SO serious. But guess what? Even if we arent good at "playing" we can learn to!

Watch a comedy show that will make you laugh; play a game with your kids or friends; try it for just five minutes this weekend and see what happens.

How can you incorporate more play and laughter into your weekend? Share ideas in the comments below for others to be inspired, too!

I Just Want To Be Me

I just turned 38 yrs old & I've never felt & been so misunderstood. I'm disabled, single, an exquisite cat mom, who is a collector of 'toys', loves writing, yet immature, independently failing, a lost cause capable of great things but motivationally empty, oh, & overweight, ugly, always frustrated, overwhelmed, sick, physically & mentally & emotionally most of the time, & hilarious & loves sarcasm, tries being creative, but empty. Heart beats but hollow. I have BPD & agoraphobia, severe depression, anxiety & adhd. Did I mention so alone that my chest literally feels empty, see inside & search but can't find it. Oh, but I'm whimsy, a music lover, a chronically bad dancer, forgetful, struggling, sober for 13 years. I'm thinking too much, not doing enough, sad, mad, sad when I'm mad & mad when I cry. I cry when I'm furious & yell when I'm in tears. A disappointment & a burden. An introverted gem of some sort, dust without diamond, just another rock. Twisting, turning, half broken, still missing a piece. Terrifying nightmare & nonexistent dreams, both in organized chaos, learning, molding. I'm everything, nothing, & both at the same time in the same moment back, forth.
End.

I want to hear from YOU.

When I was going through my hell, I always wished I had someone I could open up to in hopes that they could help me. I would of gave my right arm for that. I want to offer my real life experience ( no college degree or textbooks) of what it took to overcome my isolation, severe anxiety, panic attacks, depression, and agoraphobia. But only YOU can take that first step,. Take a chance and reach out, I'm here for YOU, no judgement, just a desire to possibly help someone with something close to my heart, that's all.

Let it out ! #Depression #MentalHealth #AntisocialPersonalityDisorder #Agoraphobia #Loneliness #betrayal

Everyone has someone in their life to whom they wants to say a lot of things, let it be about their romantic feelings, revenge statements, irritating thoughts, current life situation etc. And circumstances don't let them do that and clearly let it out.

Therefore I am giving you this opportunity to say it to them and treat the comment section as the place to tell them everything you want to tell. Just let it out folks. Let it be unanimous followed by no judgements.

You can start by:
Dear XYZ,
I want to let you know that.......
