I think we all have things that torture us, and for myself I try and work out those feelings here and in therapy, but for the other times I just try to go through the paces and do what I need to do 'even though'. Put your best foot forward...one step at a time.
You can do it! We all have our ways of doing things, find your outlet for doing! Create a routine to support yourself or a kind of ritual of certain things. Peace to you Tired!

Gentle empathy, Tired. I, too, wish I could change at the speed of a wish. Alas, old habits die hard. Lifelong habits that run nurture deep have quite allot of insidious sub-habits that can regrow the whole stress tree before you have time to say, "Johnny Appleseed."

I started with the change of being gentle with myself and patient with the process.

Let me know if you find an easier way. I might even believe you enough to give it a whirl.

What I find myself doing now when life is overwhelming is to take the moment to walk outside, reset my balance of being, and then I choose to pick one thing to do for my well-being.

Be kind to your self, be gentle, and be simple to your self.

I get stuck in this mode every day but I’ll try and slowly step-by-step but still far away I guess just hang in there like I’m doing one day at a time

When things get to be to much. I will take a break and do some meditation to help calm my thoughts and clear my mind.

Don't be so hard on yourself. Take one day at a time. Baby steps. One foot forward and don't stop.

    I haven't written in my diary on my computer since May because I thought that my computer was dying.  I got away from writing but my computer is hanging in there.  I think that I will start writing in it again.  It's so therapeutic.
