¿ " Well I Had A Wierd Day " ? #thepast

• " I Have Been Up Since 5:30 A.M. My Work Schedule Has Changed... Work Was OK Until My Mysterious Biological Aunt Came To My Work. Why Can't These People Just Stop Finding Me... Then We Talked...And She Started Telling Me That My Adoptive Parent's. Didn't Want MeTo Know About My Biological Family... Like T.B.H I Don't Want Nothing To Do With These People. And Now Out Of Nowhere They Want A Realtionship. I Was Curious But I'm Just So Over It. I'm Like Feeling Super Confused And Drained... Then She Kept Pushing Wanting To Know More About Me. I Don't Know If I Should Warn My Adoptive Sibling's... About This Lady. I Just Want To Be Left At Peace... " • #MajorAnxiety #Depression ☆ Skaoi Kvitravn ☆

How will you respond?

No one said life would be easy.
No one guaranteed us anything.
I didn’t ask for the #CPTSD the #ChronicDepression the #MajorAnxiety I didn’t ask for the #UlcerativeColitis the #CrohnsDisease the #diverticulosis the #Diabetes
I didn’t ask for being part of less than 1%of the ENTIRE WORLD having both inner ears damaged beyond repair. I didn’t ask for the #Tinnitus ringing so loudly in both ears I sometimes can’t hear what ppl say. I didn’t ask for any of this. But I have them and more
They way I see it?
I have 2 choices
I can learn to live with what I have and take #ONESTEP 🦶🏼at a time to do my best. Even if it’s minute to minute
OR
I can be a victim, feel sorry for myself, “woe is me”
I’m learning that I can’t control everything. This is a hard one for me.
I like to know what’s going on, what will happen, I over analyze EVERYTHING and then do it again. It’s a viscous cycle
My mind always races
What about this? What about that? You should have did/said whatever this or that
I’m sure a lot of you know the “Coulda Shoulda Woulda” game we all play
STOP 🛑 ✋🏻
Take a deep breath
My therapist told me something recently that “clicked”
She said “Focus on the things you CAN control, not the things you can’t.” She was right. I’m a #workinprogress but I’m trying 🙂
When I start to focus on what I CAN control, my #Stress levels go down just a bit. The #AnxietyAttack is at bay just a bit longer and I feel just a bit better.
It’s amazing what can happen when focused on what I can control and #letgo of what I can’t.
This is one of my favorite #mantras
Which one will you choose?
Me?
I’ll choose to RISE again and again
