Today is a Day.

Today is another day. It's one of those days, It's a day where I haven't showered in at least 24hrs and I don't feel up to washing thr dishes in my sink that are slowly piling up. It's a day where feeding my cat is a tough task and all the garbage seems to pile up way too quickly. It's a day where the floor feels and looks dirty but even the thought of vacuuming is exhuasting. I live in a 1 bedroom townhouse on a street that is absolutely beautiful, all my neighbours are lovely and I have an army of friends and support, It's just after christmas and just before New Year but these days where I am not sure of who I am and where I am going. I do have some purpose ands plans to inact, I have a list a mile long of things I need to do but my body aches and screams at me and my mind seems too hazy for a clear thought to break through. Today is a day, like any other day to everyone else but i have to remind myself that no matter what I do or don't do that it's ok, I know that if I tried to do anything and get overwhlemed that thats just the way it is. But it doesn't quell the anger and frustration that bubbles deep inside me, that this body, this young body is now disabled and will never be the body I once used so carelessly.

#Depression #FestiveSeason

I usually enjoy Christmas. This is the 3rd year I've been separated from my children's father. I've got them Christmas eve til tea time, that's it til the 27th. Wouldn't be so bad, but I'm expected to put on a happy face and spend Christmas day with my partner and his kids, with visits from his parents. Just want to cancel the whole thing. I miss living on my own.

MS mishaps don’t rest for the Festive Season

Today I passed out from dizziness due to med build up thanks to MS constipation. I hit my head on the tiles and hurt my back, right before Christmas. Multiple Sclerosis doesn’t rest for the holidays, but I sure am trying to. #Honeyifellinthebathtub #MultipleSclerosis #MS #Christmas #FestiveSeason #hurting #Pain
