Declare Independence Y’all

It’s July 4th, Independence Day here in the States.

I woke this morning and just I was laid there, staring at the ceiling, feeling rather down on myself. Thinking about all the things I didn’t do this week. All the things I could have done better. Before I knew it I was venturing into the “all the things I’ve done wrong in my life” zone.

Feeling like my life, my house, my mind is in a mess.. my body is a mess. I didn’t exercise as planned. I didn’t eat properly…

I’ve been off my meds. Usually the balance of meds, endorphins and nutrition is what keeps me ok. When I’m off my meds (I detox/break from it regularly) I need to be extra careful and mindful of everything else or depression creeps in and takes over and my bipolar roller coaster goes off the rails.

I really need to tidy up.. my whole life.

I was feeling so down on myself.

I got out of bed thinking I just want coffee and donuts. Like a hug for my insides… to soothe my soul. And also destroy it slowly. (Without increased endorphins, nutrients and vitamins, sugar directly feeds my depression)

But then as I was making coffee I heard Stephen A Smith talking about pounding pavements and doing the hard work because only one in a billion people get to be special and be superstars and have it easy.

And then the first thing I stopped to read on social media was “14 Things Every Fat Girl Absolutely Needs To Hear” from Jess Baker, the Body-positive blogger and baker. Thank you Lady Vee for sharing that post, it really turned my day around. (And then she friended me. Believe it or not, I’m get really excited when I get new online friends.)

And then Lis posted Cut the Crap Solutions.

And I heard some good music..

 

And then I decided to be kind to myself today. Thats something I don’t think I have ever, in 40-odd years, consciously decided to do!

I’m cutting the crap. I’m accepting and embracing me, flaws and flab and all. I’m declaring my independence from the bullshit I let sabotage my life.

If you’re feeling depressed, unhappy or just in a funk, Remember you are never alone. There are many people who care out there, even strangers and friends you haven’t met yet, like me.

Feel free to stop by anytime and say whats up, life sucks, I need help, I’m hungry, I need a hug.. or just read the ramblings of this mad woman. I think I may sometimes come off as a crazy woman, who cusses way too much, but I promise I’m all cream puff on the inside and hugging and making others laugh and feel better brings me such joy and happiness.  I wish I could make the world a cup of tea and a slice pie and see if we can make it all  better..
and ohhh cream puffs. I love those.
and cake.. and burgers.
I really want a cheeseburger right now.
But I digress..

Be kind to yourself. Declare your independence from the bs and unhappiness.

Happy Independence Day my friends.

I love y’all.
