Life

I told my psychiatrist my life seems impossible right now. She said that's normal. My life would be impossible for anyone, she said.

She said, even if everyone in my life were healthy and happy, including me, my life would be challenging for most people. I have additional hurdles, and the playing field isn't level for me. And a lot of people in my life are not healthy and happy, the most important ones being my kids.

She said, forget school for right now. Your family needs you.

She said, push everything off the table except what you absolutely have to do. That will leave you space to handle the emergencies, and maybe even space for yourself.

Good advice. Maybe this will help me get out of bed easier in the morning knowing I only have to do x many things. I don't know.
