Life update

It’s been awhile since I’ve blogged, I’m way overdue I know. I’ve been busy and also nothing has really sparked my interest. I started walking dogs and that’s kept me pretty busy, not to mention I’m making some descent cash doing so (cha ching!). I also get to meet some super cute puppies, that’s the … Read more

Current Events

Let me first add that I know very little about politics and may not use the most politically correct terms. This is just a topic that really upset me and I wanted to blog about it.

I’ve been thinking a lot today about equality, unity, and loving others. It’s easy for me to understand those things but it’s hard for me to understand the hate that is going on right now in the United States. How does one person/race/gender/religion/political party think they are superior to the next? Aren’t we all in this together? Don’t we all just want to live a happy, free life? It shouldn’t matter what the color of someones skin is or someone’s ethnicity. It shouldn’t matter what someone’s sexual preference is or how they decide they want to look. It shouldn’t matter if someone is jewish, christian, muslim, atheist or buddhist. What counts is that we all love one another despite our differences, we respect one another and we don’t harm one another.

friends of the opposite sex in relationships

One of my friends texted me recently and asked if she could ask me a personal question. She asked me if I ever felt threatened by her relationship with my boyfriend Nick.

Mental Health Update

So I’ve been off Zoloft for 3 months now. It was a success and I’m so excited I was able to come off of it after having taken it for 2 years. With that being said, yes I don’t have the need for anti-depressants in my life at the moment but does that mean I don’t still have days where anxiety takes me over, of course not. I still have days where I need reassurance and I question things over and over in my mind to the point it drives me crazy. I still have days where I create scenarios in my mind that seem very real to me to the point I believe they happened and feel emotional towards these fake scenarios. It’s always negative thinking to. I have days where I ask Nick to tell me he still loves me and that he won’t leave me because my anxiety makes me feel like he will. My anxiety makes me feel like I’m not worthy at times still. I have days where I may be meeting a new person and I have to talk to myself out loud and reassure myself that people do like me and to just be myself because meeting this new person will go okay.
