By now most of you have figured out that I have had a mental health breakdown! I want to normalize that it is okay to let others know that you are not okay!
Believe me I have been in denial for awhile and thought that I could take care of myself by shoving my feelings down and just going on with my day.
This all changed over the weekend when I could not shake the depression and the sadness. It scared me and it was then that I realized that I needed help. I got myself a therapist and I have opened up and it has been freeing!
It surprised me because I am the last person to think that would have a mental breakdown, because I am happy go lucky and as irreverent as hell. I am everyone’s cheerleader and I have so many amazing things that are going to happen in 2023.
Not sure what was the final trigger, but I am happy it happened because I am on my way to healing and getting to the other side of this as a better version of me. Self Love and Self care are on the top of the list!
2023 is going to be so amazing with changes, new challenges, crazy adventures, a mini sabbatical and living my best life with my amazing wife Cheryl! I am so freaking lucky to have her in my life. Thank you to my amazing family and friends for reaching out and being so encouraging and loving and being my cheerleaders and shoulder to cry on and talking me off the ledge!
It is ok to not be ok and let people know about it
