Freeform Friday: Taking my own advice

Honestly, I feel a bit like a fake lately. Here I am sharing tips and skills, and I’m barely holding it together. At least, from my view I’m barely holding it together. A friend recently said, “You’re holding yourself to some crazy standards thinking that you aren’t enough.”  Well, perhaps. I hold myself to the… Read More Freeform Friday: Taking my own advice

Top Skills Thursday: Recognize what hurts

So often when something troubles us, we shove it aside and keep pushing forward. A broken heart, dissatisfaction with a job, stress from any source, anger, fear, all those emotions just get pushed into a corner together. We tell ourselves we’ll deal with it later and focus on things we feel have to be done.… Read More Top Skills Thursday: Recognize what hurts

Top-Skills Thursday: Executive Dyusfunction

Executive dysfunction can originate from a variety of sources. Depression, anxiety, ADD/ADHD, illness, and even being overtired. It’s crippling when it hits, even if it passes in a day. For those who live with it, it can become a level of hell especially when combined with a society that calls it “laziness.” The first skill… Read More Top-Skills Thursday: Executive Dyusfunction

Soothing Sunday: Set a Timer

We are human. We have emotions. Most of us in the US don’t allow enough time to process those emotions in a healthy way because we’re taught to bottle things up and never let it out. When something truly world-shifting happens, especially when it’s something painful, we suddenly find ourselves with a broken bottle and… Read More Soothing Sunday: Set a Timer

Motivational Monday: Do Your Best Anyway

How many times have you done your best, poured your heart and soul into something, and received no recognition? No one recognized how hard it was. No one saw how you struggled to learn things so you could do well. No one realized you did this on top of all your other work. No one… Read More Motivational Monday: Do Your Best Anyway

Freeform Friday: Looking at reality

Sometimes, when I look around at my life and my current state of mind I get frustrated, but also encouraged. That sense of encouragement is really important right now, as I fight the depression.

Top Skills Thursday: Reframe

I’m going to start today with a visual example to explain why we should reframe things sometimes. The following image is one I took, and I’m going to frame it in two different ways. In this first image, there’s not a lot to see. Some scruffy grass, maybe a mildly interesting pattern, but overall, not… Read More Top Skills Thursday: Reframe

Freeform Friday: My battle with depression

I’ve had a frustrating realization, and I decided to share it with everyone here. My reason for it isn’t to garner sympathy, but to show how I use the skills I write about. This post may be long, and I’ll put a TRIGGER WARNING here that I’m going to be discussing the ways depression and… Read More Freeform Friday: My battle with depression

Top Skills Thursday: Affirmation

I focus a bunch on the skills to manage anxiety. My reasoning for this is anxiety, left to build itself to a peak, leads to depression. I first noticed this cycle within myself and have had multiple therapists confirm that it is common. Today, I’m going to focus on a skill to help with depression.… Read More Top Skills Thursday: Affirmation

Motivational Monday: Be true to yourself

“Your only obligation in any lifetime is to be true to yourself.” ― Richard Bach, Illusions   This is one of my favorite quotes, and a favorite author.
