Monday Mental Health Check-In: A Year Later
Posted By Kathleen David on March 22, 2021
I did the first one of these about this time last year.
It has been a rollercoaster.
This past week was not one of my best.
Even though I got a vaccine appointment, and some other things went right, I have been having just a feeling of dread and anxiety, which puts more stress on my body. This turns into a vicious cycle that spirals me downward.
I am frustrated that I am unable to get things done and can’t seem to step back and take a breath.
This is all OK.
We have good days and bad days.
This past week was not my week so I will pick myself up and try again.
It is when I throw in the towel and give up, I know I am in trouble.
I am going back to what works for me to get myself moving forward.
This means making lists so I can see that I am making progress especially when I don’t think I am.
This means making sure I am taking proper care of myself because I can’t take care of others if I can’t take care of me.
I can do this.
I am grateful for what I have learned to get me through these kind of things.
