I knew when I was making this transition to building an apartment of my own and choosing to set up roots that knowing the person I am, I would be inside my own head. Locked up with unreasonable thoughts, expectations and doubts. I sat in this apartment looking around at all of the "things" I had acquired in just a few weeks. From a sofa, art, tv, this desk, kitchen, bed... everything I couldn't fit into two suitcases and a few boxes over the last few years. It looked like a staged apartment. For example:
Thankfully I was surrounded by friends who helped me come to my senses. One thing I will always know in my life is that everything will work out. It may be harder before it becomes clear, but have faith.
My stress came to a point while I was at work on Saturday and experienced to worst migraine of my life. Took me until Late Sunday morning to start feeling normal again. Something needed to change. I won't say that everything is perfect but tonight I spent the time actually unpacking. Everything now has it's place. I feel calm. I finally feel comfortable writing at the desk above.
I am here. I am okay and everything in life will find it's place. It's the simple things that help make sense of the things, people and situations which make us feel anxiety.
Thanks for reading my vent and here is to hoping you find your simple things to help the stress and anxiety in your day.
Cheers,
