Hi Veronica--what an ordeal--so many things happening at one time. I am so glad you were able to get help and get to the root of the problem. Your point regarding how quickly things can escalate really resonates with me. Learning to plan my life so that I have space to transition from one thing to the next is a skill I am still working on. I often need mental space as well as a physical break--some time to recalibrate my thoughts. I used to compare myself to other people who prided themselves on extreme busy-ness and feel less-than when I could not keep up. Often, I ended up burnt out and useless--so I would swing back and forth between maximum intensity and being totally out of it. I am getting better at this, but it is still a challenge.
Congrats on your good news and here's to continuing to take care of ourselves.
It takes a lot of practice find that balance of keeping up with our responsibilities without letting them run our lives. Thanks for sharing your thoughts! 💛
As usual, your wisdom and honesty come to me just as I need guidance. Sitting here with Covid, at the worst possible time for my work (important annual meeting today), I’m reminded to ground myself a little more and accept that I’m operating with some limitations right now.
