I know it's been a few weeks since I last updated the blog. I am still working toward creating new content to share here. Living with a mental illness can be a challenge. The truth is some days are just harder than others whether you're living with one or not.
My original plan for yesterday was to go for a hike after church but it didn't happen. Instead I spent most of the day hiding out in my room, curled up under the covers and trying to ignore the taunts inside my head. Last night in an effort to fight it decided to create some new art pieces. They turned out ok I guess but didn't really help much with the jumbled mess that is currently thoughts/emotions.
Before I went to bed I read through today's devotional and then poured over the verses I was given to help get through this stuff. Again not sure it did much good but at least I was able to get some sleep last night.
Woke up this morning and still in a weird funk and fighting the junk that is in my head. There is a huge part of me that wants to crawl back under the covers and try to forget the rest of the world exists. Going to get dressed, pack a lunch and head out to the woods instead.
If you're wondering why I decided to post this it's because I know I'm not the only one who is struggling right now. Everyone goes through stuff and sometimes it helps to remember that it's ok not to not be ok all the time. Thankfully I have people in my life who are walking through this journey with me. People that I know care about me, even if I don't really understand why.
