I Am (Not) Okay.
Welcome, my Kabe’s! π
to a blog dedicated to providing informative and positive content about mental health and addiction.
my journey has been rough to say the least…
I didn’t know what was wrong with me. Always wanting to be by myself. Having mood swings and shaking when I was around too many people. I couldn’t stop drinking to shove all of my emotions away. I just didn’t want to be here. I lost ‘friends’. I lost family. I thought that I just wasn’t lovable.
I didn’t know I have anything going on with me. I just thought I was different. And boy was I right!!!
I ended up going to a rehab & mental health facility which took me to another one and I learned SO much about myself. I was gone for months and missed my kids very much, but that time to heal and grieve my brother’s loss and all of that was just what I needed.
I know I am far from healed. Just as I know that recovery isn’t linear. But I am willing to help others while I help myself by being part of your support system as well as being a part of my own support system. π
I have found many ways to deal with my daily struggles. Make-up, skin and haircare. Journaling. Writing poems and songs. Photography. Singing and listening to music and podcasts. Meditation. There are so many big and small ways to clear your mind and keep yourself grounded.
Now, I AM NOT A DOCTOR. So, take what I say with a care or with a grain of salt. What works for me may not work for you, but anything is worth a shot when you’re stuck in your head and disassociating every chance you get!
