I feel like I've been floating through the last few weeks, months my feet never quite touching the 'hard' floor. When everything's hard that's fine sometimes necessary. I feel like I've been in bubble land bouncing off soft surfaces until I'm dizzy because I'm always bouncing... Never getting a moment to stop and get a feel of my surroundings, set down any roots. It's frustrating now I may well be making progress in life but I don't see it!
I've taken myself off the medication I've been on, I probably shouldn't but that witch on the gp's reception really doesn't help anything at all,
So far the symptoms of withdrawal are headaches, tiredness, aggression, reckless spending, poor eating habits and inability to focus on any one thing for a period of time.
No I didn't read them off the leaflet I just regularly examine myself and my motives.
A few weeks ago someone suggested I lose my happy because it's unnatural and bringing unwanted attention, I originally thought it was the Jesus effect that was making me happy and u thought no way can I go without him!
Apparently it's the happy pills I've been on. Let's see how this person reacts to the less happy me... I bet he wasn't counting on being included in the mix lol.
My son doesn't want me to come off them after last time, understandable which teenage child wouldn't want an unnecessarily calm mum?
I wasn't prepared last time, I'm ready to fight this time it's my mind and I should be in control! Romans 12:1-2 refers to the renewing of the mind, which tells me it's within my power to train my mind.
I need to tell my mind I'm not a procrastinator, I'm not confused, I'm not interested in moping round with depression and I don't want to hang myself! It's my mind in my body and what I say goes that's how I intend it to be from now on. Self control I believe is one of the fruits of the spirit, I've been given all of the fruits so why not let them grow and manifest? That's what makes me different, that's what makes me a Christian, child of God.
I'm aware it's not going to be easy especially in the next few weeks.
I want to be dedicated I want what I had before I started gettin emotional and unstable because I clearly can have it.
I declared 2014 was gonna be a great year and I don't like to lie.
If that means I go to bed at 8pm so be it!
Staying up late to socialise and cater to the needs of everyone else isn't what I'm called to do right now I'm a mother and the head of my home I need to lead my family successfully and orderly!
I can't help others if I can't help myself.
Short term goals:-
Finish decorating my home
Get the bedtime routine back in place
Make exercise a family thing
I will keep you updated of course pray for me as I begin taking steps to restoration!
