Sometimes, life with chronic illness can be overwhelming. It’s not always because of your disease either.

It’s often all the appointments, including doctors, allied health professionals, equipment trials, dealing with government departments, routine tests and procedures, etc. It can become a full-time job. Your body becomes your business, your place of work, and you can quickly feel as if you are losing all sense of illness/work/life balance.

In fact, you wake up one day and realise you no longer have a life, and each days agenda is being determined by anyone and everyone, but definitely not by you.

This was my epiphany when I woke up the other day. I had a list of upcoming events, life changing events in many regards, running through my mind.

In this podcast I share with you the epiphany moment I had, resulting in a life changing letter where I draw a line in the sand and take my life back!

I need some serious help. I am bipolar and have chronic illnesses. I have worked for the past two years to buy a house in the country for my family and last week I finally achieved that. Ever since I have not even been able to unpack one box. I have been depressed and exhausted. I have been on the phone all day every day trying to get things done only to be cut off. I have two autistic sons that are high functioning but tbh they’re driving me crazy. They have been on break from homeschool since the move and my 13 year old wants to go back to public school 35 minutes away. He needs the therapy and structure. I’m just so unhappy. It seems I got everything I wanted. Why am I so unmotivated and miserable?? My husband is in awe.
