What some people don't realize about Anxiety.

When your anxiety is on a whole nother level, people who don't suffer with it just don't understand some key points. "Just stop worrying." If I could stop worrying cold turkey, don't you think I would? I don't intend to worry. I don't go out of my way to worry, it's just there. "Nothing happened today, why are you anxious?" Because sometimes the trigger for my anxiety is NOT an event, but a thought, feeling or sensation. I could be happily plodding through the day when suddenly a sound clicks a slot in my memory, and without evening seeing the memory my anxiety is peaked, from absolutely nothing. Just because you can't physically see the thing that is triggering me, doesn't mean it's not there. In my head, it is. "Just go exercise, it'll make you feel better." Oh my god, this is a total do as I say not as I do situation for me. My beautiful sister suffers from depression and has s

Back to School Sanity Savers

Its that time of the years Mamas. Where we run around like crazy, deranged people at Back to school sales. Chasing that stupid backpack that will fit your kid and not hand down at the ass, and 6 F*&KING BLUE WHITEBOARD MARKERS. Not black, not green BLUE!!! And you have to buy those bastards singularly.

That aside, getting prepared for the return to school isn’t just about picking up all the stationery supplies your little gremlins will need for the year.

Dear Implanon... (TMI notice)

I thought we were friends. I thought that you were the magical contraption that would put my uteruses baby making tendencies on hold. I trusted you blindly, without much forethought. You were the best solution for a woman who forgets to take her contraceptive pill. Turns out you were a wolf in sheep's clothing. The erratic cycles, the mucus changes, the tiredness. I could have forgiven those things. What I could not forgive was the slow and nasty decline of my mental health. The decline was so slow I barely noticed it at first, and then all at once, I realised I was in too deep and couldn't get back out. I had to sit down and take account of contributing factors, and your appearance in my life seemed to take place smack bang before my anxiety and OCD began to take over. But this could not be. My Implanon wouldn't do that to me, we had a deal. But after doing some research, I found I wasn't the only one. So many more others out there sufferin
