lonely 2w

Being lonely is heart breaking

Ever just sit at home, with the need to chat to someone. Just interact. You scroll through your phone and you realize there is no one you can just send a message to asking to chat. Everyone is busy with their own life, family and friends. Your message will go unread for days. Or no reply.
Your mental health is just "to much"
I spent my days trying to figure out where to make new friends, but seems like everyone has enough friends #lonely #sad #alone #Depression #Divorce #MentalHealth #FamilyAndFriends

2 beautiful memories

When my daughter was little we had a bedtime routine. We'd cuddle with our plushies and watch a Disney movie together. One night when the movie was starting she said "mommy, we need to talk". I thought I was in trouble but she said it was very important. She scooted close to me and put her arm around me. She said "you're very handsome. Mommies aren't supposed to be handsome, they're supposed to be beautiful. But that's ok because you're a good person and I love you. I don't know why Daddy says you're a freak."

*************

One day I said to my daughter "let's go hunting for fairies" and she said "fairies don't exist and magic isn't real. Daddy says so." I replied "anything good can exist if you believe with your whole heart". She decided to go look in the backyard by the rocks. 10 minutes later she came running, shouting "mommy Mommy I found magic!" She opened her hands and showed me a plain grey rock. I said " nice job .." but she said "no, there's more!" And she turned over the rock to reveal crystals! She found a geode!

From the “You never know what a day will bring” file. #Anxiety #Depression #Surgery #FamilyAndFriends #MentalHealth

I am typing this from a hospital bed. It’s been two years since I have been in hospital. That was a crazy season of 7 surgeries in 8 months.

Tomorrow I say goodbye to my appendix. I won’t miss it at all!!!!!

Living in the moment #Depression #PTSD #Anxiety #FamilyAndFriends #Relationships #MentalHealth

One challenge of handling mental illness is not letting the past rob your present. I went to my 7 year old Granddaughter’s open day at school this week. I asked her to smile for a photo and this is what I got.

Abigail is a force of nature. She always lives in the moment. I am learning to do the same.

How is your moment looking?

Mega Thank you #Depression #Anxiety #Hope #graitude #Relationships #FamilyAndFriends #MentalHealth

To my GP, Matthew, who treats me in a wholistic manner, thank you. To the cardiac surgeons who saved my life, the Orthopaedic surgeons who saved my leg, the Psychiatrist who brought me back from the edge of suicide, thank you.

Thank you to my podiatrist and physiotherapists who help me manage pain and stay healthy, I am grateful for all you do. To the Dermatologists who have twice got all the cancer from my face, thank you.

The scientists who created the 13 different medications I take daily, your research and hard work touches so many people in my circle of influence.

As I recall the amazing support and encouragement I receive from the community of The Mighty, my family and friends, words are inadequate.

Lastly, Jesus, I love you. Thank you for never giving up on me. I am eternally grateful!

Who or what are you grateful for?
