Everyone says: “If you need anything, don’t hesitate, I’ll be there for you “. I’m going to make a bet, without being pessimistic, that many people won’t really know what that means…Mental Health Awareness Week May 1-7

People shouldn’t have to know what it feels like to suffer from mental health issues… often times as a result of things they have absolutely no control over.

In 2015 I started making obvious mistakes in my job… as it got worse my PTSD got worse and my stress levels were postal… in June I went off on what was supposed to be a brief medical leave…since then it’s been discovered that as a result of a lifetime of taking large amount of medications aimed at making my life better from my autoimmune’s and coupled with the fact that I have over my lifetime suffered more than a dozen serious concussions I have developed some pretty serious brain changes brain changes that cost me my job in 2015 and again this month.

I don’t know what will happen I know that I am a little desperate right now but I also know that nothing I can do will change the fact that I have (amount many health issues) mental health issues.

…don’t be mean…don’t be hurtful…don’t laugh…be kind….be understanding

Be aware…mental health issues are not something we choose, they are something that happens for a myriad of reasons most often with no control

There has to be something out there that this tired old beat up brain can do…I’m not giving up…I fought too long and too hard to get here.

Mental Health Awareness Week May 1-7

Peace💚

and I’m not quite sure
what it is

so I’ve been off work
for 20+ months

all of a sudden
in the last couple of days
I’ve had a lift
from the depression
that was developing
over my financial
situation

possibly the idea
that the worst is over
and I can get
back on track…

I have a job to go to
that’s now starting
on the 5th of April
the idea of paychecks
and places to go
have caused me to
make hopeful
plans for the future

there was a handy man
in my house last week to
fix up my bathroom
some new fixtures
and a new floor

I’m very pleased with
the bathroom reno
but while he was here
he changed out
3 of the 4 tubes
in my kitchen light

holy daylight batman!
it’s like someone
has put an SAD lamp
in my kitchen
and its affecting me

I’m doing housework
little bits at a time
seeing as I currently have
a bum knee
(which I might add
turns out to have been
a pinch not a tear
and is way better
just from immobilizing
and icing it)

but seeing as my bathroom
has been refitted
I now have worked
on my kitchen
cos
I can now see
just how much
I’ve neglected in there

I’ve actually
vacuumed the den and my room
no small feat
while keeping a leg straight

I’ve dusted the den
likely will dust the bedroom today
which leaves me with the
dinette and living room
who knows what I’ll get up to?

I’ve got too much stuff
I’ve got plans to do
things with the stuff
shredding
gifting
putting away

and I have an urge
to be here
more often
than I have in a long time

things is looking up!
