Happy

I am unhappy.  Constantly looking for ways to fix me.  I am stressed by expectations. I spend time looking for ways to ease the burden I have saddled myself with.  Will that supplement help me sleep better? Will that pill make me forget that I am not satisfied with my career?  Will spending my extra income on new clothes or make up make it feel ok to be me? If I float in a pod of saltwater for 60 minutes, will getting out of bed tomorrow not feel terrible? 

Now I have more clothes cluttering my closet, products cluttering my bathroom storage and a deficit in my bank account made out of supplements, drink mixes and skin care products.   And I am unhappy.

    Tricia-

    Your post resonates with me on many levels. There are no words that will magically make you feel better, but I hear you and feel for you. You are not alone. Life can be so challenging, and our social media influenced and divisive culture contributes to all of it. Imposter syndrome, self doubt, negative body image, unexplained restlessness…it’s real. If you ever want to chat…I’m here. I think you are amazing.
