COMING SOON….If Mental Illness Was A Picture…

Hey, everyone, I have something I saw and just had to share. Then I decided to try and write about it. Here goes nothing…

But before you keep reading, I want to warn you, I’ve been feeling really off the last few days and my thoughts my be everywhere and I apologize in advance. I am trying. Slowly. Please be patient with me.

The images below come from an article published by Christian Sampson

I, too,, suffer from mental disorders, and you know what? I will probably lose followers for even admitting that, but lately I’ve been struggling like crazy to stay above the surface and that honestly scares the hell out of me.

Writing has always been my “go to” whenever I’m dealing with almost anything, something I’m beyond grateful my Grandma passed on to me. The love of writing. The love of words. How one single phrase can change everything.

So here I go…WAY out of my comfort zone. BUT I am DOING IT!!

For ME. You never know; this could be a part in the healing process ❤

Baby Steps…And A Challenge

Before I even begin writing this post, I’d just like to say thanks to all of you who have been reaching out to me and who continue reading my blog, (despite the spotty postings) lifting me up through this heartbreaking time in my life. It means the world ❤️ and I ask you to please be patient with me. I know this article may seem very jumbled and way longer compared to previous posts

Hey, internet family! I know I have been MIA for the last few months (that’s putting it lightly 😬) but I’m doing my best to get back into my writing in general, as well as on here. 

I recently got an email from a long time follower, who challenged me (as well as told me that they’ve been missing my blog posts and just wanted to check in with me to make sure I’m doing okay) to start writing again, and then sent me this link to a different bloggers article that had a huge list of questions to answer.

They told me that I need to go easier on myself as I’m dealing with a whole heck of a lot right now in my personal life. (Which, I admit, is the understatement of the year 🥺) and that if, and when, I decide to start writing again, to take baby steps and not force myself into rushing back to writing just because I worry about losing traffic on here because my postings have been spotty at best lately. 

I want to pause right here to say that when I originally started blogging, my goal wasn’t to become ‘popular’ or to earn money writing.

I started blogging for a few reasons; (but I won’t get into that right now as this is already a long post 😂; but let me know if that’s something you would like to find out about)

She went on to say that it probably wouldn’t be easy to just jump back into writing, so she said maybe the first step could be just answering questions on my blog and slowly work my way back up.

I think that is a great idea! Baby steps.

While I currently have the list she sent me in the email, I thought I’d ask if any of you have a question or two in mind.

Let me know down in the comments or you can reach me HERE. Facebook is the best way to reach me as I can respond a lot faster.

I will leave this post up for a week and please feel free to ask me anything you’d like to know 😊

I’m excited to see what the responses are from all of you 😊. In a week, if I haven’t received any responses, I’ll be filling out the questions from the article I linked above. There are over 300 questions though; so I will be answering them a handful at a time.

Sorry guys! I know I’ve missed several Chronic Illness Challenge posts so for the time being I will be putting the rest on hold as something has come up.

Have a wonderful night!
