quote of the day 🌚

When I was younger I used to collect quotes like this one (and I particularly liked Jim Morrison's).

I don't think general quotes can work magically or for anyone, but I do believe they can hide hints inside of them.

I always find them inspirational, even when I don't think they fit for me.

"If you don't control your mind, someone else will."

What do you think about this? :)

freely writing what comes to mind as a way to know what's on my mind 🖋️

Writing with no filters apart from my own artistic means as my only way to have a clue about what's really going on inside of me.

I have a hole in my mind and have no clues what's going on there and I'm only at the beginning of the process to reach it.

love myself
kept me company
there's detachment inside of me
I've killed
So what am I?
oblivion of my past
the many millions versions
warriors
the desire to be with you
Has it always been me?
just me and only me
my ego my will my life
back at my core
should never forget you
my confusion healing me
my little friends
I'm back at you again
wrappes by placid me
Taking care of you all.
I'll come to love you.

National Brain Injury Awareness Month #BrainInjury #Awareness #MightyTogether #MentalHealth

Surviving trauma is not easy
Surviving trauma takes a determined mind
Surviving trauma is falling down
Surviving trauma is getting back up
Surviving trauma is accepting change
Surviving trauma is accepting a helping hand
Surviving trauma is sharing pain
Surviving trauma is forgiving yourself

It has been eight months since my accident. I am learning to live with the loss of some peripheral and blurred vision, constant headaches, confusion, dizziness, mobility restrictions in both shoulders and memory loss. Being aware of every new pain or numbness and wondering is this because of the injury or nothing and it will pass.
The memory loss is the hardest to deal with. Having a conversation, going to a movie or sharing a moment and knowing that in a week you may not remember some of what happened and in a couple weeks you may not remember it happening at all. It's not all bad, I don't remember what things taste like, so anything I eat now is like it's the first time. Imagine what it would be like to have chocolate ice cream or pep/mushroom pizza for the first time at 55. The short term memory loss has forced me into being more organized and I can't procrastinate, so I have that going for me.
A brain injury means I don't drive, I don't do the job I loved. I do take things slower, I live in the moment and that's not so bad.

80 months since my accident, so many changes. Now on disability, lost our home, lost Brandy. Once again we are starting over, no not starting over, getting back up after being knocked down and without brushing of the dirt we are back in the batters box. Give us your best pitch we can take it.

MayMentalhealthAwareness ..... #MentalHealth #CheckInWithMe #Anxiety #Depression #Selfcare #PTSD #Positivity #Bekind

May is Mental health awareness month.

I am really struggling at the moment ,mentally & physically! I have to keep reminding myself to be kind to myself & take care of myself instead of being frustrated at my body for all these issues which I can't control.

Our mental health is soo important & being able to speak out & get help is being strong .

Be kind to yourself ♡
Love yourself ♡
You matter ♡
Take care of yourself ♡

I think this is great ...... #MentalHealth #Abuse #Toxic #Anxiety #PTSD #Depression #Selfcare

#Abuse
I came across this on my Melanoma Awareness IG account which I hadn't been on in ages until recently. This came up on someone's post and I thought it was an amazing thing for bars/clubs/restaurants to be doing it was in the bathroom .I think it such a good thing that could help people female/male s also as its not only females who can suffer abuse or suffer being in scary,dangerous situations. I think more places should definitely have things like this in place to help anyone needing it .
