January is 10 Days In!

Hello Everyone.
Welcome to another episode of #WhatOnEarthIsHappening ! 🤣

My emotions nose dived today like as if I was flying in an air plane circus show. #emotional time periods are not the best times, but they can be #Valuable when we have #Anxiety . I started to #think about all of these things that I have experienced so far since my father had died in March 2022.

When my #Dad passed away... I lost my favorite pain in the @$$. I was his favorite too. I #Love and #MISS my Dad so much. #Death is not an easy thing to #handle . But while I was #dealing with the #Lose of my Dad, I had them lost my job right after coming down with a terrible #illness .

It was a nightmare for me how I #lost my #Job and my #daddy all in such a short time span. I haven't found another job since because I have not mentally been #prepared for #MentalHealth is something that needed to be worked on as I am still #grieving over my father and my job.

So... Here I am... #RidingTheWaves that come in and out in my mind. Sometimes I just need to #RollWithIt and do what I need to do in the best way I can,.. even if it isn't my usual best. #Trying is better than #denying and #Procrastinating .

I must start small.
If I want a #Job ... I should try a small part time job somewhere. Maybe a retail job.. but.. even #Retail can be #stressful these days. It's getting #worse now that #AnxietyDisorder is getting stronger or more intense with me. But I will do my #best to #KeepWalking onward.

Do you have any words of encouragement for me?

Does anyone else download tons of mental health apps and never use them but don't delete them because you feel like you need them? #Procrastinating

I'm always downloading mental health apps but sometimes I don't have the motivation to do them so I never really do them but I don't wanna delete them or lose them because I feel like they're necessary to have.

Procrastination

First time poster here! Greetings friends.
At the start of the pandemic and when gyms closed, I maxed out a credit card building a garage gym. It’s really wonderful. It was great for the first few weeks. But I’ve struggled for months now to use it and get out of it what I intended to. I used to work out 4-5 times a week for almost 10 years straight. My father was killed in February and while that’s it’s own problem I’m dealing with, I still make excuses to be a couch potato and do nothing. I’m the go to person at work. I’m the belly button for everything. I thrive in my profession. Yet, when I’m outside of work, I can’t seem to return my mind to the same mindset I used to have towards my physical fitness. Why is this? Has anyone struggled with this? I’m sure it’s depression related, but how do I motivate myself and light a fire under my ass again? I have a 10,000$ gym less than 30 feet from me but fail to use it. How can I change my mindset and behavior? What works for you? #Procrastinating #Depression #mindset

WFH has made me lose ALL ability to focus on work - now I fear that my procrastination will lead to me losing my job! #Anxiety #Procrastinating

I have been working from home for 3 months now and I sit at my home office desk every weekday from 9am - 5pm and I have accomplished NOTHING. I work for an arts organization so all live performances are cancelled and as the one in charge of volunteers, I do not have much on my plate anyway. At first I did courses and signed up for webinars but for over a month I haven't been able to do anything but answer emails.
I am terrified that I will lose my job once the boss finds out I haven't accomplished anything. My anxiety and depression have gone through the roof - do you have any advice? Pls help

Just because i have chronic pain...

...doesnt mean i dont have to do my half of the chores. Well, more than half really as im the landlady. So after a few days of #Procrastinating and a few days of feeling bad for doing that i told myself: Just vacuum one room today. My 25 yr old tenant will walk in and think i STILL have not vacuumed and will probably be annoyed but whatever. So i vacuumed the room, #Cursed !, #SWORE !, vacuumed the #Cat post, cried out! Changed the vacuum bag. Now im going to rest for a bit and then do a load of laundry 👍

Procrastinating Night Owl

Because I suffer with daily #Anxiety , depression, and borderline personality, I never really know how I’m going to feel. Somedays are just okay, and other days are bad, and other days are AWFUL. Havent had a good happy day in months. Anyways, I #Sleep and #nap a lot. My sleep schedule is so messed up & it always has been since I was about 16. I take naps during the day for many different reasons, lately it’s been to pass the time of being bored/numb/depressed. Today I wasn’t even tired & I was getting a headache from too much sleep but I just couldn’t be awake anymore. So now, I’m wide awake (it’s currently 2:22... anyone else see angel numbers a lot?) I am dreading going back home to my parents house tomorrow. Lickily my amazing & loving boyfriend is driving us there & will be there for most of the day. I don’t know how I’m going to survive living with my family without him. I was supposed to pack earlier today, but I always have to leave things to the last minute. I am so good at #Procrastinating & talking myself out of doing shit. I was so babied by my mother I don’t know how to do anything for myself, I have no self discipline and my #Borderline tends to make me feel sorry for myself which I hate. I’ve been living in my ego & feeding my ego for far too long but it take so much effort to do anything. I haven’t even finished packing yet and we leave tomorrow morning at 10am which means I need to be up at 8am and I’ll probably fall asleep around 3am. WHY DO I DO THIS TO MYSELF?! I get so angry at myself then feel sorry for myself & don’t change. UGH. I’m hoping I can fall asleep fast, wake up with ease, feel positively motivated to pack quickly & enjoy getting ready. I hope the drive will be nice & easy & smooth the whole way there & I’ll enjoy the 2 hour solitude with my boyfriend & dog. I hope seeing my family tomorrow will be surprisingly good, and that I’ll feel peaceful going back to church rather than anxious. But who knows? Any tiny thing can go wrong & it’ll set me off. I also don’t know if I should pack my weed or not? Does anyone else ? How does it effect yourself #moods? Does anyone else struggle with this bad habits of #oversleeping & #Procrastinating until you have no one to be upset with but yourself? I’m going to #meditate now & try to fall asleep.....
