This past week has been fun and also stressful. I went on vacation and was fine, in control of my thoughts and turns out my symptoms got a little hectic as the vacation ended. But when I sit and think of my thoughts… would I really do that? no. it is just my mind playing tricks. It has to be the fact that I've been trying to get rid of the thoughts in the wrong sort of way. ignoring them isn't the solution. I have to get through it myself with perseverance and the strength of people around me and I can do it. My whole family is supportive. & my boyfriend. Sometimes when I go to public places, it effects me, but I still push myself to get up and go out into the world. I've deleted apps on my phone towards social media to hopefully get more progress. To everyone reading this, make sure your family is supportive as well. Tell them what you are dealing with so they understand. I have the closest bond with my family, especially my mom. she has been with me since day 1. If you really go through your thoughts in your head and say, is this really worth worrying about? Try and divert the thoughts into something else to get your mind off of it. What you are dealing with, I am dealing with something too, it might not be the same problem but we can all work together to overcome it. I know I can. as much as the thoughts come to destroy me. I have to be stronger than the destruction. The girl I was and still am, will come out of this stronger than ever and you will too! I promise you 🙂 Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end. Hope this boosts some confidence to whoever reads. 🙂
