Mental Health Humor: Weekly Review
Always and forever the same, yet still making baby steps… baby steps, baby steps! When you live with a mental disorder, you’re always doing a checks and balances. You adjust your meds. You try and keep your moods stable and finding balance isn’t always easy for some. When just getting out of bed is your mountain you must climb and doing it some days, it feels like climbing Mt. Washington. Then how do you try and explain that to some one who keeps asking what’s wrong?! For me, it’s getting out of the house… I hate to leave and when I do leave, I don’t like to bump into people I know unless I’m ready for it… Today, was one of those days.
It’s hard to understand how a person with so much joi de vive, suddenly just wants to hide.
So, here is what I’m doing to adjust this… since really what we are talking about is Agoraphobia. Yes, the fear of going out! With a touch of social phobia to mix it up a little, too.
The best way to help these issues believe it out not is to get out… The ol’ facing your fear… So I will be taking an art class this week and I’m working on getting out to do some other things that will bring around people I know… I’ll let you how it goes…
